Film Production Services Cambodia

There some key qualities to look for in a local Cambodian film production company. Some companies provide specific production services. For instance, certain companies will specialize in a particular stage of production. Others will be able to mobilize the resources necessary to support projects from pre-production all the way through principal photography and into post-production. Still, other companies might have more of a focus on services such as location and production management and logistics. Regardless, it is important to know what you’re getting. It helps to hire a local production company with experience, know-how, and dedication to providing quality services on behalf of achieving the creative vision of producers and directors. Furthermore, there are always budgetary considerations. Good production companies in Cambodia or any ASEAN nation will strive to adhere to budget and always carefully track expenses.

Cambodia Production House

Morgan and Preston have been operating our film production house and company in Cambodia for a decade now. We have a distinct ability to help our discerning clients get the most out of this lovely nation. At times, due to Cambodia’s developing status as an economy, filming here can be logistically challenging. However the effort is rewarding, and adventurous filmmakers seeking locations that have yet to grace the silver screen will find what they need. Morgan and Preston provide full production company support in Cambodia. From the beginning, we pay careful and meticulous attention to pre-production and planning. Our journey with clients begins with casting, storyboards, scripts, shot lists, and itemized, transparent budgets. Any successful film or series shoot begins with a solid foundation.

Moving on, Morgan and Preston mobilize at a moment’s notice for the all-out effort that is principal photography. During this stage of production, human resources are utilized for a team effort that requires incredible organizational and managerial finesse. Here is where logistics comes into play, with factors influencing the process such as transportation, dining, and lodging. Then after principal photography comes the creative efforts and focus of post-production, an art form in and of itself and a topic we’ll cover later in this article. Morgan and Preston provide it all, and we are well-known in the industry as a boutique Cambodia film production company. We always roll out the red carpet for clients and guide visiting productions every step of the way. This is why we have so many returning clients, including major studios, multinational companies, and global luxury brands.

Locations For Filming In Cambodia

When it comes to locations for film and television company production, Cambodia shines. This country has it all and more. In Phnom Penh, there’s an abundance of urban options. This includes but is not limited to both modern and traditional architecture, in both western and Asian styles. Phnom Penh has many historic buildings and shophouses preserved from the French colonial era. Here you can also find temples, shrines, rustic markets and luxury high-rise hotels and rooftop bars. Phnom Penh also has a lovely riverside walk with views of bridges and drifting wooden fishing boats as well as luxury riverboats slowly ambling by in the background. Another interesting feature of this city is that it was built in the Parisian style with boulevards, monuments, and roundabouts in many areas.

Further north of Phnom Penh, up the mighty Mekong river, is the city of Siem Reap and the legendary Angkor Wat. Angkor is a UNESCO world heritage site and the largest archaeological site in the world by volume. One day isn’t enough to see it all, and visitors are advised to set aside at least two. Turning south, Cambodia is also blessed with idyllic beaches and islands on the Gulf of Thailand. Not only that, but there are mountain ranges nearby with hills blanketed in lush jungle. Cambodia has rice paddies, wild elephants, and winding rivers which are incredible settings for adventure films, travel dramas, romance movies or documentaries. Audiences will be enthralled by the scenery that lights up the screen, adding dimension and depth to the visual narrative.

Cambodia Crew and Equipment

With so many wonderful locations and good local film production company support, the next step is crew and equipment. Morgan and Preston have a complete local roster of talented professionals on call for every aspect of film making. We can help with hiring directors, ADs, DOPs, PAs, and gaffers. We also know of the best art, grip, and wardrobe departments in the country. These consummate pros are ready and waiting to labor day and night in pursuit of success.

As far as gear and equipment are concerned, it’s all available here. Because Cambodia’s film industry has been growing by leaps and bounds, rental houses are offering complete catalogs. This includes Arri, Sony, and Red cameras. Also, specialty equipment is on call such as rigs, jibs, cranes, dollies, Steadicams and aerial and underwater devices. The sky is the limit!

Video Production Cambodia

Due to overwhelming demand, Morgan and Preston began offering complete videography services in Cambodia many years ago. This is because so many travel shows, documentary series, and webisodes are coming to this country. Additionally, we provide support for corporate video, live event video, industrial video, and social media marketing video. Increasingly, streaming online video content is the dominant medium of the 21st-century. Forward-thinking companies are catching on and tapping into this powerful means of reaching target audiences with engaging narratives. With the power of viral distribution, brands are now able to reach new demographics overnight with successful Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube videos.

Post Production Services Cambodia

With pre-production planned and organized with careful attention to detail, and principal photography a wrap, there’s one more important step in the film making process. Many industry professionals and film theorists agree that film is a director’s medium. That means that the most creatively intensive and focused work is done in the editing suite. It is here that the final flourishes are put on each frame of footage. Morgan and Preston understand the artistic qualities of cinema and we provide complete post-production services and support. We can help with remote or in-house editing, SFX, color correction, subtitles, end credits, and animation. As far as sound is concerned, we also assist with ADR, voiceover, Foley, dubbing, and sound effects.
