At ASFTV we both Location scout and manage if required.
Many clients also request that we supply Unit support (see Unit)

2008

This year we were Location Fixers with ITV Productions and their production “Martin Clunes: A man and his dogs” (see testimonials) and had a great time traversing the outback shooting dingoes (with a camera of course) The crew were great and so was Martin who took the heat and flies in his stride, even when we had to shoot at the local rubbish tip!

Another UK crew arrived in March, this time from BBC 4 and their renowned Natural History Unit. ASFTV supplied a small unit and Location fixed this 1 X 60 minute documentary on Central Australia ”The Red Heart” to screen later this year (also see testimonials)

2007

Location highlights have included a Honda Japan stills campaign at Rainbow Valley. We have also provided a rustic outback town look for a Tigerlily swimwear shoot (see Australian Traveller magazine report http://www.australiantraveller.com.au/index.cfm?page_id=2260) and spent 8 days in the desert near Gosses Bluff with National Geographic Magazine for their July 08 edition. We have recently worked with RTL Croatia and are currently working with ITV UK on locations involving remote Aboriginal communities.

2006

Looking back on last year, March/April saw us Location Scout and manage a video clip for the well-known Japanese hip-hop band Ketsumeishi. ASFTV also supplied remote Unit to make life bearable (and safe) for cast and crew.

Later in the year we pushed into Australia’s North again, into the crocodile-infested waters of Kakadu National Park scouting for the OPTA agency and their famous “where the bloody hell are you?” tourism campaign.

We spent 3 weeks travelling the desert with the cast and crew of Lonely Planet Television’s “Going Bush” documentary series for SBS TV. ASFTV supplied personnel, full catering, camp and emergency equipment for this challenging desert exercise. Presenters Cathy Freeman (star of the Sydney 2000 Olympics) and Actor Luke Carrol were true professionals and a pleasure to work with.

We were also Location Managers and scouts for the Disney Channel Kid’s series “Double Trouble”, and completed the year working with renowned London Agency Dewynters PLC on a week-long photoshoot for the Royal Ballet, providing Location scouting and Production Management in Australia for their world-class stills campaign designed for the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden.

2005

Mid-year we completed work as Location Manager on the Nine Network/Southern Star series of “The Alice”. This is a 22 X 1 hr TV series.

We also returned from our second location scouting job for acclaimed director Baz Luhrmann’s “Australia” project, this time in the Kimberley region of Western Australia.

2004

At year’s beginning, Alice Springs Film and Television were Location Fixers for BBC TV on the very popular live-to-air game show “Lottery Jet Set”.

From February to April we Location Scouted and Managed for the Southern Star Production Pilot of “The Alice”, a 1 X 90 minute Telemovie shot on super-16 for the Nine Network Australia.

In October 2004 we were location scouting for the Columbia Tri-star production of “Ghostrider”, a US $80million feature starring Nicolas Cage and based on the Marvel comic-book character.

2003

A the beginning of the year we Location scouted the video clip “Forever precious” for Australian artist Kitana in Bali, Indonesia.

In the middle of 2003 we completed location scouting in Central Australia for the $310 million Dino De Laurentis production of the epic feature “Alexander the Great”, which will be directed by Baz Luhrmann (Moulin Rouge).

Another client for the year was Chatsworth TV (UK) for BBC 2. This entailed location-fixing for the helicopter-based international quiz show “Treasure Hunt”, filmed in and around Alice Springs.
