Frequently asked questions.

Why shoot from France in Belgium, Morocco or Côte d'Ivoire?

Each destination answers a specific need. Belgium: Tax Shelter (up to 48% financing), geographic proximity, dense advertising ecosystem. Morocco: 30% Cash Rebate (min 10M MAD), Ouarzazate studios, Atlas / desert / medina locations. Côte d'Ivoire: French-speaking West African hub, modern Abidjan, operational stability.

Can incentives from several countries be combined?

Yes, through co-production structuring. France + Belgium = TRIP + Tax Shelter. France + Morocco = TRIP + Cash Rebate. We model the optimal stack based on your budget, locations and schedule constraints.

What services do you provide on the ground in these destinations?

Full executive production: location scouting, vetted local crews, permits, equipment rental, customs logistics (ATA Carnet), accommodation, transport. Coordination from Paris, execution with operational partners on site.

How does France ↔ destination coordination work?

Single production direction based in Paris. Dual reporting (France team + local team), one client point of contact, secured contracts, consolidated budget tracking. We operate in French and English across all three destinations.

Which destination do you recommend by project type?

Short-form advertising: Belgium (fast-to-mobilise Tax Shelter). Period film / series: Morocco (Atlas, desert, period sets, Ouarzazate). African fiction or documentary: Côte d'Ivoire (Abidjan, savannah, lagoons). We advise based on budget, target incentive and schedule.
