Your shoot in Austria, organised from Vienna

Agencies and production companies from abroad come to us when they shoot in Austria. We scout locations, put together a local crew, organise equipment and casting, take care of permits and run the production on set. Editing, grading and sound can follow in Vienna, or we hand the material over to your post house.

For shoots in Romania we work with our partner team in Bucharest: executive producer Oana Maria Ursachi and location manager Marcel Ursachi. Two examples of our service work: bet-at-home, shot in Transylvania, and McArthurGlen, shot in Parndorf for McCann UK.

Why shoot with us

Vienna is a short flight from most European cities, and within a few hours' drive you have old town streets, lakes and Alpine roads. Production in Austria costs less than in London, Paris or Berlin. You have one contact for the whole shoot who knows the local crews and rental houses and works in German and English.

Locations and permits

Scouting with photos and video, location agreements and the permits for filming in public space, on roads or in listed buildings.

Crew and equipment

Crew, camera, light and grip from Austria, put together for your shoot. Motion control with the MRMC Bolt, virtual production and the U-Crane on request.

Casting

Actors and extras from Austria, cast to your brief, with the usage rights agreed for your media plan.

On set

Our producer runs the shoot days on location: schedule, transport, catering and accommodation for the team travelling in.

Post-production

Editing, colour grading, sound design and VFX in Vienna, or a clean hand-over of the rushes to your post house.

Romania

With our partner team in Bucharest we also organise shoots in Romania, from city locations to the mountains of Transylvania.

Estimates for pitches

For agencies we come in at pitch stage with locations and a production estimate, so the idea is planned to budget from the start.

Frequently asked questions

Where is dockyard based, and do you shoot outside Austria?

Our office is at Hasnerstraße 123 in 1160 Vienna, and ICS Media GmbH has a second office in Gmunden, Upper Austria. For shoots in Romania we work with our partner team in Bucharest. Through a network of long-standing partners we also produce in other European countries and take care of scouting, crew and logistics on location.

Can dockyard be our service production in Austria?

Yes. For agencies and production companies from abroad we organise shoots in Austria: location scouting, local crew, equipment, casting, permits, on-set production and, if you want, post-production in Vienna. With our partner team in Bucharest we also shoot in Romania. Examples are bet-at-home in Transylvania and McArthurGlen in Parndorf for McCann UK. Rates in Austria are below those in London, Paris or Berlin.
