Given its autonomy, it can work like any other Production Service company, but better still, thanks to our own internal resources (film sets, warehouses, post-production, visual effects, back-office rooms…), this division is able to offer an integrated service that substantially lowers costs; a unique added value that sets it apart from the competition.

Value proposition
The key factors that set apart Secuoya Studios’ value proposition for providing services for international shoots include:
A first-rate team of professionals with extensive training and experience in film shoots both inside and outside of Spain and who are able to handle productions of enormous complexity and organize large or small teams for international film shoots.
The possibility of offering an integrated service, which substantially lowers costs and offers availability guarantees, thanks to the internal resources of Secuoya Studios and the Grupo Secuoya (film sets, warehouses, post-production and visual effects rooms, etc.).
An internal database of locations and, thanks to our partners and Secuoya’s subsidiaries in Latin America and the U.S., the possibility of offering solutions in other countries.
Experience obtaining filming permits and dealing with paperwork, as well as excellent relations with natural parks, national heritage, town and city councils, provincial and regional governments and all kinds of public and private administrations.
The capacity, in coordination with the Business Affairs department, to analyze the eligibility of costs, optimize how expenses are divided by region, establish a production schedule, advise on the availability of the different regional incentives, as well as manage the monetization of the incentive with tax administrations, together with the availability of specialists in finance and tax structuring who can help optimize costs and revenues for producers.
Internal resources: the key to our service
What do we do?
At International Filming we apply an integrated management system to audiovisual production, including services like:
International tax rebate advice
International Filming can not only advise foreign clients wishing to shoot in our exceptional locations, but also, thanks to our partners and subsidiaries of Secuoya Studios in Latin America and the US, this division is prepared for offering solutions in other countries. Together with the Business Affairs division, our team has the capacity to analyze the eligibility of costs, optimize how expenses are divided by region, establish a production schedule, advise on the availability of the different regional incentives, as well as manage the monetization of the incentive with tax administrations.
We also have our own in-house finance and tax structuring specialists, who help to optimize costs and revenues for producers. And, of course, production, post-production and back-office synergies throughout the process.
Global management
The International Filming team is involved in productions of enormous complexity and is capable of forming part of international film crews. This department facilitates access to locations throughout the country and also enables the possibility of synergies with third countries, through our network of alliances and partners, whether in Europe, the U.S. or Latin America. Likewise it has the capacity to meet all the client’s needs (production services, casting, crew, development, legal advice, post-production, visual effects, back office, etc.) to enable them to fully develop their project.
Global Services
This department is not only able to provide the traditional services, but also has direct access to the film sets of Grupo Secuoya and Madrid Content City, which currently have 12 sets, all of which meet the highest standards of the international market, warehouses and technical storage spaces, cutting-edge facilities, as well as its own team and state-of-the-art post-production and visual effects rooms.
In addition, the international service department is able to offer a complete service to its clients without the need for intermediaries, thereby slashing production costs.
Few companies in Spain have the capacity to carry out integrated productions with internal resources. We have our own locations database, our own facilities and film sets, camera and technical equipment rental companies, and post-production and visual effects rooms. This all means we are not affected by the lack of materials and resources suffered by other companies due to today’s market saturation.
Green Shooting
International Filming uses production models, materials and tools that minimize the use of natural resources and the generation of toxic materials, waste and pollutant emissions in its pursuit of a strategy of sustainable and productive management, included in the criteria of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
