Filming in Istanbul with a local partner

Istanbul gives a production the Bosphorus, Ottoman landmarks, nineteenth-century streets and a contemporary skyline within one city. What decides a schedule is traffic, access, light and permissions — which is where a local production partner earns its place.

LSS Film supports international teams in Istanbul with location scouting, permit coordination, local crew and equipment, casting, transport and on-set production management. Permission requirements depend on the location and type of production; we confirm them before the schedule is locked.
