Production Details
Mbrella Films offered comprehensive production services throughout the filming process in Thailand.
Their services encompassed securing accommodations, arranging transportation and security for the main talents, and obtaining work and location permits. They also provided logistical support for nearly 50 Korean crew members who traveled to Thailand for the shoot.
In addition, Mbrella Films assisted in pre-production by locating and securing filming sites, casting over 300 background and featured extras, and overseeing art direction and production design across all locations.
This includes shooting at the iconic scenes at Usa-Sawat Bridge, the Chao Phraya River and the luxurious presidential suite at the Park Hyatt Hotel.
Film Permits and Work Permits
Mbrella Films took LOVE IN THE BIG CITY through the full film permit and work permit process, application to approval. We translated the script into Thai and prepared accompanying notes for the Film Board. We filed the complete document package with the Thailand Film Office and stayed on it until approval came through. We handled the work permits at the labor office, every Korean crew member had theirs the same day. We covered Film Board updates for the entire production.
