Why Shoot in Romania?
Romania packs alpine passes, medieval citadels, brutalist cityscapes and wild coastline into distances you can drive in a day — at production costs 40-60% below Western Europe. EU membership means no carnets, no visas for EU crews, no customs friction. We speak the language, know the roads and have shot on them for years.
Which regions do you cover?
The whole country. Our base in Sibiu puts the Transfagarasan, Transalpina and the best of Transylvania within short reach; Bucharest and the coast are well within range.
When is the best season for mountain road shoots?
The Transfagarasan and Transalpina are typically fully open late June to late October. Off-season access can sometimes be arranged — ask early.
How far in advance should permits be requested?
For road closures and drone permits allow 2-4 weeks. Standard locations can often be cleared within days.
