Mean Mama Films
Mean Mama Films supports international productions with trusted fixer services across Thailand and South East Asia. We guide your team through local rules, secure film permits, find the right locations, and provide skilled crew and safe logistics in each country. Producers trust us because we know how to move fast and protect your schedule in a region with its own systems, languages, and cultural codes.

Our fixer service is more than a contact on the ground. We act as your local partner. We handle scouting, approvals, casting, crew, equipment, travel, and daily support. You can step off the plane and start work with a clear plan.

We support features, scripted series, reality shows, documentaries, commercial work, and high pressure productions that demand accuracy. With Mean Mama Films, you gain a single team that covers Thailand, Vietnam, Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, India, Japan, Laos, Cambodia, the Philippines, and Myanmar.

Why You Need a Fixer in Thailand and South East Asia
Productions that enter this region must navigate film permits, local laws, regional travel, language barriers, safety rules, and cultural norms. A mistake in any of these areas can delay or stop a shoot. This is why international producers rely on a skilled fixer in Thailand and South East Asia.

Thailand alone has a strict system for film approvals. Only licensed coordinators can apply for permits. You must submit scripts, schedules, location lists, and crew names. A local fixer protects your project from errors and gives you a smooth path through the Thailand Film Office and city authorities.

In other countries, the rules vary. Vietnam has provincial approvals and strict drone rules. Indonesia has regulations for marine parks and temples. Singapore has tight control over public areas. India has complex location layers. Japan has controlled access to streets and districts. Cambodia and Myanmar have their own systems for heritage sites, temples, and protected zones.

Mean Mama Films understands these differences and adapts to each country.

Fixer Services in Thailand
Thailand is our home. As your Thailand fixer, we secure film permits with precision, find rare locations, and manage full support across Bangkok, Phuket, Chiang Mai, Krabi, Phang Nga, Samui, Pattaya, and every major region.

We scout for city scenes, rooftops, beaches, mountains, jungles, temples, riverside settings, and islands. We also provide Thai crew with strong international credits. Transport, hotels, equipment houses, marine support, art build, and casting are part of our service.
