Commercial Video Production — France, Monaco & Belgium

Orangefilms provides commercial video production services for international brands, agencies, and broadcasters shooting in France, Monaco, and Belgium. We manage the complete production infrastructure — crew, locations, permits, and logistics — from first call to final wrap.

What is commercial video production?

Commercial video production is the process of planning, filming, and delivering video content for a brand, agency, or broadcaster — from a thirty-second TV commercial to a multi-day branded content shoot. It covers the complete workflow: brief, budget, locations, crew, on-set logistics, and delivery.

For international productions — where a brand or agency brings its shoot to France, Monaco, or Belgium — the central challenge is managing a foreign production environment efficiently. Permits vary by city and location type. Crew contracts follow local industry agreements. Equipment must be sourced locally or cleared through customs. Every element requires a local partner who knows the territory.

Orangefilms has delivered complete commercial video productions in France since 1994 — managing incoming creative teams from brief through to wrapped footage. Over 500 productions across France, Monaco, and Belgium for brands and agencies including Apple, Gucci, Zara, Mercedes, Samsung, Nike, and Chanel.

What we manage for your production

Every element of your commercial video production on the ground — managed from initial brief to final wrap.

Pre-Production & Budgeting

We build your production from the brief up — schedule, crew list, location strategy, permit timeline, and a fully itemised budget. For qualifying international productions in France, we include an assessment of the 30% French Tax Rebate for International Productions (TRIP) from the outset, not as an afterthought. Clear numbers, no surprises.

Locations & Permits

France, Monaco, and Belgium each have distinct permit processes. We manage the complete authorisation workflow — Paris street and Préfecture permissions, Monaco Film Commission applications, heritage site access, private location agreements, and regional clearances. Our location specialists prepare fully documented reports covering photography, access logistics, and permit requirements for every candidate location.

Crew & Equipment

Full crew departments assembled to your production's scale — from a lean team for a single-day commercial to complete department structures for multi-week shoots. Repeat partnerships with DOPs, production designers, art directors, and coordinators across France, Monaco, and Belgium. Equipment packages built to your creative specification from established local rental houses.

Logistics & On-Set Coordination

Transport, accommodation, airport logistics, cross-border movement for multi-territory shoots, and daily on-set production coordination. France, Monaco, and Belgium productions are frequently combined into single itineraries — we manage the full movement plan across all three countries as one seamless operation.

Where we shoot

Three territories, one team. Thirty years of commercial video production experience on the ground.

France

A deep crew base across Paris, the Riviera, Provence, and the Alps — experienced departments for productions of any scale. Full production infrastructure from studio builds to complex location shoots. The 30% French Tax Rebate (TRIP) reduces qualifying production costs significantly.

Belgium

Brussels, Bruges, Ghent, and the Ardennes — visually diverse, excellent crew infrastructure, and shorter permit timelines than France. Frequently combined with France in multi-territory itineraries, managed as a single production. The Belgian Tax Shelter provides significant incentives for qualifying shoots.
