PRODUCTION FIXING RECOMMENDATION:-

“ My production company filmed interactive workout videos in Australia, and I'm so glad we found Carolyn! Carolyn handled all of the logistical challenges we faced while filming in Australia. From booking transportation, helping with accomodations, and most importantly, handled all of the film permitting necessary for the many locations we shot in. We filmed all the way from Cairns (one of the northern most points on the east coast, all the way the south in Sydney). Carolyn was very responsive, polite, and professional, and handled everything that came up with a smile. I would highly recommend any production filming in Australia to reach out to her, she's a pro, and she was wonderful! “ CEO STEVEN DOXEY, JOURNEY CREATIVE
