Filming in Turkey – What we can do for you?

Do you have plans to filming in Turkey? Orient Light Productions is a local production service company in Turkey. We are a group of experienced filmmakers based in Istanbul, the center of film and media, but we can work all around Turkey.

We have been to and filmed in nearly every corner of the country for various international filming projects. We have many local contacts all around the country and we can advise you on choosing your filming locations in Turkey. Do take a look at the categorized photographs section on our website to get an idea. Let us know if you are looking for something exciting or unique!

We believe that every production company needs to be specialized in one area. Our speciality is non-fiction film;

Corporate Videos: This may either be a promo video of any production facility in Turkey or a corporate communications video for a company. Let us know what you need to film and let our crew do the rest.


Documentaries: We love documentaries! Turkey is full of natural, historical, and cultural sights that are stunning. We love to step in every corner of this unique land, film the exciting moments and places, and share them with everyone around the world. 


TV Programmes: If your project is a filming for a TV show or infotainment programme, we are here to assist you from pre-production to post production. 


Current Affairs: If you need filming about any current affairs topic, we can film that for you.

Interviews: If you need an interview filmed for your project, our crew is here with talented DoPs, soundmen, lighting crew, and reporters. Our DoP may act as a “one man band” and do the camera, sound, and lighting work alone for smaller projects. We can also provide live streaming service for you to oversee the whole process remotely. 


Have a look at the selection from our works and references and don’t hesitate to ask for more.

Filming permit is necessary for all filming in public locations. It takes around 3 to 4 weeks to apply and finalize the necessary permits. In order of need, those include permits from the ministry of culture, related governorship and/or municipality and related institutions. Just let us know your filming locations and we will inform you whether you need a permit for your project.


We have access to a wide variety of video production equipment. We can rent video cameras in all models and formats, lenses, all the necessary grip, sound kits, lighting kits, and drones for you. If your production needs a specific camera and lens, just let us know and we can shoot your work with the same model as you’re using to shoot the rest of your project.

As for the delivery of your footage, we supply the highest possible speed of uploading for your raw footage. 100Mbps! As soon as the filming ends, we’ll start uploading you the footage to your supplied cloud or file transferring service. If you don’t have a file transferring service, our company can provide it for you. If you prefer us to ship you the footage with a hard drive, just let us know and we will ship you the footage via DHL Worldwide.

Orient Light Productions cooperates with editors and post-production experts who are among the best in their area of expertise and are fluent English speakers. If needed, we can also provide editing and other post productions services.

Please contact us for your next project, we’re eager to collaborate! Our team is here to assist you with their knowledge and expertise about filming in Turkey.
