Production Services

Your Story – Our Groundwork

At TIME PRINTS, we provide production services in Germany for documentary and factual films, as well as cultural and commercial projects for NGOs, museums, and academic institutions. With nearly two decades of experience in the German media landscape, we know how to make international productions run smoothly on the ground.

We collaborate with filmmakers, broadcasters, and organizations worldwide, supporting them with every stage of production in Germany. Whether you need access to archives, permits for sensitive locations, or a full production crew, our team has the knowledge and connections to make it happen. Our services begin long before the camera rolls. We support early development with research, scouting, and logistics, and continue through pre-production, line producing, shooting days, and post-production. We can also assist with practical details such as travel, accommodation, and local transportation, ensuring your team can focus on the creative work.

Budgeting is at the heart of good production. We prepare transparent and precise budgets tailored to your project’s needs. No hidden costs, no surprises, and most importantly, we never go over budget.

We work with the most skilled local crews in Germany, many with international experience on award-winning productions. From directors of photography and sound recordists to production managers, editors, and designers, we bring together professionals who meet the highest creative and technical standards. Shooting abroad can be daunting. That’s why TIME PRINTS acts as your local partner in Germany, bridging cultural and logistical gaps, and making sure your team feels confident and supported every step of the way.

Tell us about your project- we’ll make it happen in Germany.
