Farm Rebellion with Ernst Gotsch

Fixer Brazil served as the production services provider for the German production company Megaherz during the filming in Brazil of the latest international original on Disney+, Farm Rebellion.

The series revolves around Benedikt Bösel, a former investment banker turned farmer and visionary, leading a young team in testing a groundbreaking approach to agriculture.

Benedikt faces the challenges of drought and sandy soils on his farm near Berlin, which are increasingly prevalent worldwide. During his time in Brazil, he had the opportunity to meet Ernst Gotsch, a Swiss farmer and researcher with a background in genetic science and the creator of Syntropic Agriculture.

A film crew from Europe joined forces with the Brazilian team for a week-long shoot, capturing the captivating essence of Ernst’s agroforestry farm. This remarkable location boasts an abundance of stunning cocoa trees alongside various other species.

Filming in the Amazon for Megaherz’s Tobi Feature Film

This was another great and challenging film project in the Amazon region, in Brazil, shot between Rodônia and Amazonas states.

Megaherz Film Crew in the Jupaú Indigenous Village

The film crew, led by the creative director Johannes Honsel, joined the Fixer Brazil team in São Paulo, and flew to the city of Porto Velho. The first assignment was to film the Amazon Fires. It required some research and a recce trip, months before the shooting, to find the right place to shoot.

Filming the Amazon Fires

From there, we traveled to the Jupaú Indigenous land, for 4 days of shooting at their territory. Again, arranging all details with the Indigenous People and also organising all accommodation, transportation and food logistics in advance was essential for the success of the shooting.

Base Camp at Jupaú Village

We have organised a base camp for the film crew at the village, with tends and a master chef to prepare all meals to keep the crew healthy and motivated for the job.

Learning how to use bow and arrow

The connection between the crew with the locals is essential, and par of our work is to make this happen smoothly. `

Tobi Krell and a cute sloth

This was just the first part of the film trip. After flying to Manaus, the last part of the shooting required finding a scientist who works with Sloths to get some amazing scenes of the actors with this species in the middle of forest. It’s essential to have all permits when filming wildlife, and we always guarantee that.

Boat Trip in the Amazon River

At the end, the prize for the crew was 2 days of a boat trip in the Amazon and Nego Rivers, shooting some pristine forests and amazing scenarios that you can only find in the Amazon region.

Fixer Brazil was the full service producer for this job, taking care of all logistics for transportation, accommodation, food, local payments, and production services.

Filming for Business Reporter and ValGroup in Brazil

FixerBrazil.com and 10e20 Filmes have shot a corporate film for Business Reporter, a UK online resource delivering news, features and analysis around the critical issues affecting  business and management.

The film is a sponsored feature about ValGroup, a Brazilian company that annually recycles over 135,000 tonnes of plastics, preventing this material from ending up in landfills and, subsequently, the wider environment.

The best way forward is to support the development of an efficient circular economy, in which our natural resources never become waste.

Renato Falzoni was the Production Manager in charge of the interviews; Tomaz Cavalieri was the Director of Photography; Clara Cervantes was the Sound Girl and Rogerio Marciano was the gaffer.

Plastics play a vital role in our society.

Moreover, they are significantly less energy and water intensive than the alternatives, and also have a very low carbon footprint, making plastics one of the most useful and sustainable materials ever invented. Plastics are indispensable if we want to build a better future for this and future generations.

Renting filming equipment in Brazil.

Most of the bigger film and tv equipment rental companies are located in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. Here it is possible to get most cameras like the RED, C300, FS7 and lenses. It is also possible to hire Lighting and Grip.  Be prepared to pay a premium, as renting equipment in Brazil can be expensive when compared to the values practiced in the US and Europe. One option is to bring the camera and lenses from abroad and hire heavier equipment here and in this case we can help with the customs clearance of the camera.
Our production company has a great relationship with Film Equipment Hire companies so we can get you the best prices in Brazil.
