FilmFixer handles around 8000 film shoots a year.
FilmFixer was started in 2007 to provide administrative and practical support for local authorities and landowners wishing to maximise income from location filming in London. The need for this service came about after the London Filming Partnership Agreement was signed by all 33 boroughs, which had to commit to being film friendly and establish a key point of contact to deal with enquiries. Directors Andrew and Karen had been working freelance on films and TV in London for years. They were convinced that boroughs would struggle to deliver this service. Their idea was to encourage the boroughs to outsource their film services to enable greater efficiencies and better relationships with stakeholders within each borough.
