Frequently Asked Questions
What is service production?
Service production is when a local production company runs a shoot in its country for a production company, agency or brand from abroad: crew, locations, permits, equipment and logistics, while the foreign company keeps the creative control and the client.
Where in Spain does DotFive work?
Our teams are based in Barcelona and Madrid, and we shoot anywhere in Spain, the Balearic and Canary Islands included. Tell us where you want to shoot and we’ll send you the options.
What kind of shoots do you service?
TV commercials, branded content, music videos, documentaries, feature films and photo shoots, for production companies, agencies and brands from abroad.
How fast can we get a budget?
Once we have the full brief, you get a free, detailed budget in less than 24 hours, at real local rates and with no hidden mark-ups.
Can DotFive be our fixer in Spain?
Yes. For a short shoot we work as your fixer: permits, locations, local crew and logistics. For a bigger job, we run the full production service.
Do you handle filming permits?
Yes. Spain has no single filming permit, so we check what each location needs, prepare the applications and file them for you.
Do your crews work in English?
Yes. The crews we put together work in English with international teams, and a bilingual DotFive producer is on set with you.
Can we bring our own director and heads of department?
Yes. You bring the director and the key people you want, and we complete the team locally.
Do you handle casting and equipment?
Yes. Street and professional casting, and camera, lighting, grip and vehicles at local rates, with no hidden mark-ups.
Do commercials get Spain’s film tax incentive?
No. Spain’s tax incentive for foreign productions covers feature films, series and documentaries, not commercials. For commercials, the saving comes from local rates. Planning a film or a series in Spain? Ask us.
