Drama Series Production

Here is how this works in practice. We give production support for drama series across Croatia, setting up the sustained operational demands of episodic production from prep through to series wrap. Our team assembles skilled heads of department, camera and lighting crews, art department, costume and set decoration, and we manage the multi-episode logistics that scripted drama depends on: cross-boarded scheduling, location bases, unit moves and steady quality across an extended shoot.

Here is the short of it. Croatia gives an unusually compact range of period and today's settings, from medieval fortresses and Venetian-era stone towns to Austro-Hungarian build style in Zagreb, so a series can cover many looks without long travel. We handle permits, rebates forms and crew logistics so showrunners and producers can focus on the creative.

Here is the breakdown. Croatia has built a strong global reputation for scripted television, anchored by 'Game of Thrones'. This used Dubrovnik as King's Landing and the cellars of Diocletian's Palace in Split as Meereen. That work set up a generation of English-speaking crews fluent in the demands of large-scale episodic drama. HAVC, the Croatian Audiovisual Centre, administers the 'Filming in Croatia' incentive. A 25% cash rebates on qualifying spend that rises to 30% in less-developed regions. The country adopted the euro on 1 January 2023, simplifying budget work for global shoots. Domestic TV networks HRT, Nova TV and RTL Croatia sustain a steady drama output that keeps the local crew base active between global jobs. For producers planning a series, Croatia combines tested crews, different locations and a transparent rebates.
