Transportation Coordinators

Here is how this works in practice. We supply transport coordinators who manage the movement of crew, cast, gear and cars across a Croatian production. Our team places transport coordinators who plan and run the production's car fleet, schedule drivers, organise ferry crossings to the islands, and solve the access problems that Croatia's geography creates. This includes off-limits car access inside Dubrovnik's walls, narrow island roads, and the logistics of national-park locations.

Here is the short of it. They set up with the assistant director and production office to make sure crew and gear arrive where and when they are needed, manage fuel and upkeep, and keep the fleet running through a long schedule. A transport coordinator we place works fluently in English, knows Croatia's road and ferry network intimately, and brings the planning discipline to keep a production moving across a logistically demanding country.

Here is the breakdown. Croatia's geography makes transport planning a serious discipline. Productions routinely move between mainland cities, ferry-served islands such as Hvar, Brac. Vis and Korcula, mountain locations in Velebit, and covered national parks, and walled cities like Dubrovnik limit car access fully. The growth of service shoots under the HAVC-administered 'Filming in Croatia' incentive has built transport teams skilled with these demands.

Here is what that looks like on the ground. Transport coordinators we place know ATA Carnets and the straightforward intra-EU gear movement that Croatia's EU and Schengen membership allows, work with the regional film commissions on car access at heritage locations, and gain from Croatia's 2023 adoption of the euro for cross-border fuel and fleet logistics. EU free movement lets them bring in drivers and pro transport from neighbouring Italy, Slovenia and Austria when a production scales up.
