Fixer Brazil and OTW, a content agency from Sweden, partnered to produce the Brazilian episode of Volvo Penta Boating Dreams series.
Shot in São Paulo, Barueri and Ubatuba, the episode showcases the Osse family building their own boat to travel from Brazil to Alaska.
Kerstin, the producer, and Ake, the DP, traveled from the cold Gothenburg to São Paulo to join Tomaz, the Fixer, Clara, sound recordist, and Felipe, the driver. We had two days of shooting in São Paulo and Barueri, at Osse’s place, and two days in Ubatuba, at the beautiful Saco da Ribeira beach and surroundings.
Tomaz, from Fixer Brazil and 10e20 Filmes, was in charge of drone aerial shots with the Mavic Air, following all regulations from ANAC – National Civil Aviation Agency.
Fixer Brazil rented the Sony FS7 camera with lenses kit and accessories in São Paulo, what made everything easier for the foreign crew to travel light to Brazil.

Renato Falzoni from 10e20 Filmes is an excellent fixer with in depth knowledge of the country. He is organised, determined and has a great ‘can do’ attitude. He was able to open doors that I thought were double padlocked, and quickly. I can highly recommend him. Paul Reddish, Director
Free Spirit Film
“Brazil – A Natural History” is a 5 part series produced by Terra Mater Factual Studios for National Geographic. 10e20 Filmes was our partner in Brazil and they provided all the administrative and logistical support to produce this blue chip series. 10e20 Filmes proved to be a reliable partner with a passion for film making. On our next projects in Brazil I will certainly work with them again and I can recommend that you do the same, you will not be disappointed. Wolfgang Knoepfler, Line Producer

“Lonelyleap has successfully worked with Tomaz Cavalieri of 10e20 Filmes on two different documentary commercials to date. In both instances, Tomaz calmly guided our team through customs + permitting procedures and into production, ensuring best practices were upheld and proper safety precautions considered. Tomaz is level-headed, focused, and able to adapt to changing environs. Beyond his capacity to effectively produce, he is also generous in nature and thus a pleasure to work alongside. He consistently goes above and beyond; I look forward to future projects together.” Cassandra Evanisko, Producer

“We really enjoyed working with Tomaz from FixerBrazil, and we quite literally couldn’t have done it without him.
I truly can’t thank the FixerBrazil team enough. Dave McLean, Executive Producer

“My company Image Impact has just completed a complicated shoot in Brazil – in just 9 days our small crew travelled from Sao Paulo to Rio Grande in the south, and Belem in the north, filming the science and natural history of venomous snakes. Without the help of Tomaz and his team it would have been impossible to make the film – as well as arranging our entry to the country and dealing with customs, his help was also invaluable with last-minute logistics and making arrangements with local experts. I’d recommend his services to any production company shooting in Brazil.”
