Mean Mama makes filming in Thailand easy. We manage every step of production — feature films, TV series, documentaries, commercials, and music videos. Whether you need a jungle in Chiang Mai or a rooftop in Bangkok, we get you in, get it done, and keep it moving. We handle the full picture. That means location scouting, permits, casting, drone filming, customs support, visa and work permits, studio access, gear rental, transport, catering, and on-set crew. One team, one point of contact, no loose ends. You tell us what you need — we’ll handle the rest.
It’s important to know the Thailand Film Office does not accept permit applications directly from foreign productions. Only licensed local coordinators, trained and registered with the Film Office, can apply on your behalf. That’s why it matters who you work with. We’ve secured permits for over 100 international shoots and know how to get approvals fast, clean, and without surprises. Also, Thailand offers up to 30% cash rebate on qualified production spend. The more you spend locally, the more you get back. We’ll help you plan for it, apply for it, and follow through from the first form to the final audit.
We’re known for speed, reliability, and obsessive attention to detail. We’re the mama who knows how to get that perfect street locked off, the camera boat on standby by 6 AM, and the shoot wrapped before the rain hits. No drama. Just results and great food.
