On Location

We provide line producing for Croatian shoots, managing budgets, schedules and the 'Filming in Croatia' rebate across locations from Dubrovnik to Zagreb.

Here is how this works in practice. We give line producing that turns a creative plan into a deliverable, on-budget production in Croatia. Our team builds and manages the budget, runs the schedule, runs crewing, and keeps each department working within the resources agreed. We set up locations, gear, transport and lodging, manage cash flow and supplier payments, and act as the operational link between the director's vision and the production's financial reality.

Here is the short of it. We track spend against budget across the shoot, expect overages before they happen, and solve the daily logistical problems that come with filming across the Dalmatian coast, the islands and the continental interior. The result is a production that hits its dates, controls its costs and gives financiers a clear, trusted picture at each stage.

Here is the breakdown. Line producing in Croatia means working fluently with the national rebates. HAVC, the Croatian Audiovisual Centre, administers the 'Filming in Croatia' programme. A 25% cash rebates on qualifying Croatian spend that rises to 30% in less-developed regions. A line producer structures the budget and forms so the rebates is fully captured at audit. Croatia uses the euro, having adopted it on 1 January 2023, and VAT is 25%. The regional film commissions in Dubrovnik, Zagreb and Istria support shoots locally.

Major projects including 'Game of Thrones', 'Star Wars: The Last Jedi' and 'Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again' have run big budgets through Croatia. We draw on that experience to line produce shoots that are efficient, compliant and financially transparent from prep to delivery.
