Filming in Uruguay
Uruguay is a film-friendly country. The offices and institutions responsible for issuing filming permits understand the importance of the audiovisual industry and its economic impact. Permits are processed quickly and efficiently, with no complications.
It can easily double for European, American, or rural settings, with a wide range of landscapes located within short distances.

Uruguay has experienced technicians in all key departments, many of them bilingual, known for their flexibility and competitive rates.
Uruguay has an inventory of 16mm and 35mm film cameras, digital cinema cameras, lenses, lighting and grip equipment, dollies, cranes, steadicams and state-of-the-art drones.
