We Put the "Production" in Production Services. Casting, Art Department, and Costume.

Production Design: Set construction in India by Goa Film ServicesEveryone & Everything You Need in Front of Camera

Most "fixers" think their job starts when the permits are signed and the vans arrive. We disagree. The camera doesn't film permits. It films people, sets, and stories. Research and Prep are everything.

Are you terrified that your Indian "expert" contributor will freeze on camera, your extras will look down the lens, and your "period" props will look like they came from a souvenir shop?

We are UK-owned and managed. We understand that finding the right face or building the perfect set is not a logistical box to tick—it’s the difference between a BBC documentary and a holiday video. From finding cricketing monks for Steve Waugh to building biblical Arks for Channel 4, we handle the creative heavy lifting In Front of Camera.

Casting in India: cast from Mumbai for Hollywood feature film The LettersCasting & Talent

We Don't Just Cast. We Hunt.

Finding talent and contributors in India isn't hard; there are 1.4 billion people here. The problem isn't scarcity; it's noise. We act as your filter, your detective, and your negotiator.

Factual & Documentary: The "Needle in a Haystack"

For unscripted work, you don't need a casting agent; you need a journalist. You need Creative Research.

  • The Contributor Hunt: You want an interview with a specific Royal Family member? You need a monk who plays cricket? We don't just post on Facebook. We get on planes. We find the people who don't want to be found.

  • The Vetting: We ensure your contributors are credible, articulate, and—crucially—willing to sign the release form.

  • Case in Point: For Capturing Cricket, we didn't just find "cricket fans." We secured access to the Royal Family of Vadodara and brokered a match with Tibetan Monks in the Himalayas.

Casting foreign actors in India for Hollywood feature film The LettersNarrative & Commercials: The "No-Melodrama" Zone

  • Acting Talent: Western directors often struggle with the "Bollywood" performance style. We work with Casting Directors who understand naturalism. We filter the auditions so you only see the talent that fits your tone—whether it's for a Hollywood feature like The Letters or a Netflix promo.

  • Junior Artists (The Extras): In India, extras are called "Junior Artists" and sometimes they are unionized. If you manage them poorly, they are a mob. If you manage them well, they are production gold.

  • Case in Point: For Jet Trash, we needed a hedonistic rave in a Goan nightclub. Using only real tourists was a creative minefield. We brought in a small "Rent-a-Crowd," to strategically place in the foreground and background, styled them, directed them, and controlled the chaos.

Art department and costume design for a feature film in IndiaArt Department

We Build Worlds. (And We Get 40% Cash Back).

The Art Department in India is a playground of possibilities, provided you know where to look.

Production Design & Set Construction

Why green-screen a temple when you can build a one for the price of your hotel budget?

  • The Build: Indian craftsmanship is legendary. We can deploy teams of carpenters, painters, and welders to construct massive, camera-ready sets at a fraction of Western labour costs.

  • Case in Point: For The Real Noah's Ark, we didn't just film a boat; we managed the construction of a massive, biblically-accurate timber vessel in the backwaters of Kerala.

Art Design and Props for a period drama film in IndiaProps & Dressing: The "Risk Mitigation" Prop

Sometimes, a prop is more than just an object. It's a legal safety net.

  • Sourcing: From vintage Enfields to colonial furniture, we know the "Prop Walas" in Mumbai's Goregaon district who have warehouses stacked with history.

  • Fabrication: If it doesn't exist (or is illegal to film), we build it.

  • Case in Point: For Jet Trash, the script required a dead cow. Filming a real dead cow in India is a great way to start a riot. Our Art Department fabricated a hyper-realistic dummy cow. It looked real, satisfied the script, and kept the Animal Welfare Board happy.

Costume Department

Costume design for a feature film in IndiaRaiding the "Dresswalas"

Mumbai has unique institutions called "Dresswalas"—massive, family-owned costume libraries that have supplied Bollywood for generations.

  • The Inventory: Imagine a warehouse the size of a football pitch filled with nothing but 19th-century British Raj uniforms, mythological armor, or 1970s disco gear. It’s all there.

  • The Service: We navigate these dusty labyrinths for you. We source, fit, clean, and manage the wardrobe so your Costume Designer can focus on the look, not the laundry.

  • The Benefit: It is significantly cheaper to rent high-quality period costumes locally than to ship them from London or LA.

Bespoke Design & Fabrication

  • Costume Designers & Stylists: When you need something refined or bespoke for your Lead Actors or Models we access a huge pool of talent and creativity to find artists who are used to working with local materials and within the framework of an Indian set.

The Bottom Line

Creativity that Pays for Itself.

Here is the best part about using Indian Creative Services: The Cash Rebate.

  • The 40% Incentive: Art Department materials, Set Construction labor, Costume rentals, and Indian Cast fees are all Qualifying Production Expenditure (QPE).

  • The Math: If you build your set in London, you pay full price. If you build it in India, the Government effectively hands you 40% of the cost back.

  • The Voice: We budget creatively but report accurately. We use Movie Magic to track every rupee spent on that fake cow or that vintage sari, ensuring your audit is clean and your rebate is secure.
