General Questions ( video production mallorca )

What types of video projects do you support?

We offer full production services for international companies filming in Spain. Our services include productions for music videos, branded content, corporate films, event coverage, aerial drone filming, and complete post-production editing.

Where is TAN TAN based?

Our main base is in Palma de Mallorca and Madrid but we operate all across the country of Spain.

Why is Mallorca a good place to film?

Mallorca’s appeal lies in its diverse landscapes, beaches, cliffs, countryside, and city scenes all within short driving distances. With over 300 sunny days per year, reliable infrastructure, and a wide range of accommodation options, the island is ideal for filming efficiently and beautifully.

Do you help with production insurance?

Yes. We work with trusted providers to organise insurance coverage that matches your project’s size, scope, and specific needs.

Is your crew experienced with commercial shoots?

Absolutely. Our crew in Mallorca is made up of highly skilled professionals with a track record in international commercials, branded content, and high-end productions.

Can you help us find local talent or extras?

Yes. We collaborate with casting agents to source actors, models, and extras for all kinds of productions. We can also handle paperwork and legal compliance for shoots involving children.

Locations

Do you provide access to pre-scouted locations in Mallorca?

We maintain a curated database of locations across the island. Whether you need a modern villa, old finca, cliffside road, or beach, we’ll send over photo decks based on your brief.

Can we film on Mallorca’s beaches? Do you manage permit applications? How long does it take?

Yes, beach filming is possible, and we handle all permitting on your behalf. Permits for sensitive areas or road closures may require up to three weeks, so early planning is key.

Are there any locations that are off-limits for filming?

Some areas are restricted due to environmental protections or private ownership. We’ll guide you to the best alternatives and ensure your shoot complies with local regulations.

What kind of logistical support do you provide for larger outdoor productions?

We offer full support, including transport, power solutions, catering, tents, and restroom rentals, to keep your team comfortable and your shoot running smoothly on location.

Yes. Our art department can design, construct, and strike sets, always restoring the space to its original state after the shoot.

Can TAN TAN organise logistics for visiting crews?

Definitely. We arrange accommodations, transport, and other essentials for clients and crews traveling from abroad.

Can you film outside of Palma de Mallorca?

Yes. We regularly shoot across Spain and have experience working in Barcelona, Valencia, Málaga, and other cities, in addition to our base in Madrid.

Do you offer location scouting services outside of Spain?

Spain is our focus, but we also service in Havana, Cuba. If you’re planning a shoot there, we can help make it happen.
