As we conclude our 28th production season at Gavin Schneider Productions, we’re pausing to reflect on what has truly been one of our most exciting years yet. From established partnerships to new creative endeavours, this season began with significant momentum, and for that, we are immensely grateful.
Cape Town has long been recognized as a premier global destination for film and stills production, and this season reaffirmed that reputation. With its iconic natural beauty, diverse locations, top-tier talent, and world-class production services, the Mother City consistently provides the ideal backdrop for extraordinary content.
Returning Clients, Renewed Energy
This year, we had the distinct honour of welcoming back several of our esteemed German clients, who returned to Cape Town for multiple campaigns. We also continued our enduring relationships with UK clients, collaborating on another series of successful shoots. Their trust in our team and our city underscores what we have always believed: when it comes to production, Cape Town offers an unparalleled combination of experience, creativity, and value.
These relationships form the core of our operations. Each season, our aim extends beyond delivering a seamless production; we strive to create memorable experiences that inspire our clients to return.
Why Cape Town Remains a Top Choice
While the location itself is a significant draw, several key factors consistently bring our international clients back season after season. The favourable exchange rate remains a substantial advantage for clients from Europe, the UK, and beyond, making it more cost-effective to produce high-quality content without sacrificing standards.
Beyond its affordability, Cape Town offers remarkable diversity. Whether your project requires coastal roads, lush vineyards, vibrant urban settings, desert landscapes, or contemporary interiors, it’s all within reach. Coupled with excellent weather throughout the summer months, it stands as a reliable choice for a wide array of projects.
Crews, Models & Locations That Elevate Standards
At Gavin Schneider Productions, we take pride in collaborating with some of the most talented and dedicated professionals in the industry. From our producers and crew to our casting directors and styling experts, every individual plays a crucial role in ensuring the seamless execution of each project.
We are also incredibly fortunate to partner with exceptional agencies that represent some of the most experienced and skilled crew in the business. The holds true: teamwork makes the dream work. This spirit of collaboration and shared commitment to excellence is what makes our shoots not only successful but also enjoyable from beginning to end.
A highlight of each season is the discovery of new locations. Our location agencies go above and beyond to scout innovative and inspiring spaces, ensuring that every campaign feels fresh and unique. Whether it’s a hidden architectural treasure or a stunning beach at sunrise, it’s always exciting to witness the emerging trends each year.
Looking Forward to Season 29
Our passion for our work intensifies with each passing year. As we anticipate Season 29, we are filled with enthusiasm for the opportunities and collaborations that lie ahead. We are continuously striving to improve, evolve, and provide even greater value to our clients, whether you are joining us for the first time or returning for your tenth project.
Cape Town continues its growth as a global production hub, and we are proud to be an integral part of that journey. If you are considering bringing your next stills or film production to South Africa, allow us to showcase the magic of Cape Town through the expertise of our team.
We would be delighted to help bring your vision to life.
