In recent years, Shenzhen has emerged as a creative powerhouse and a magnet for video production in China. Known as China’s Silicon Valley, Shenzhen is not only a global tech hub — it’s also a vibrant city with futuristic architecture, lush coastlines, and a youthful, entrepreneurial energy that makes it a top choice for international video crews.
If you’re planning a production in southern China, Shenzhen offers a winning combination of aesthetics, accessibility, and efficiency. And with the right local support, your shoot can be smooth, compliant, and creatively successful.
At Pixel Productions, we offer full-service video production support in Shenzhen, helping international teams navigate everything from permits and logistics to crew hiring and equipment rental. Here’s what sets us apart:
Film Permits & Regulatory Guidance
Filming in Shenzhen — or anywhere in China — requires careful coordination with local authorities. Our bilingual production team manages the permit application process from start to finish, ensuring your production is fully compliant and free of last-minute surprises. Whether you’re shooting in a tech campus, a bustling street market, or a luxury penthouse, we’ll get you the clearances you need.
Reliable Local Crews with International Experience
We work with some of the most skilled and professional camera crews in the region — from directors of photography and sound mixers to drone operators and lighting technicians. All of our crew members are accustomed to working with international clients and delivering top-tier results under tight timelines.
Professional Gear Rentals
Need RED, ARRI, Sony FX series, drones, or specialty lenses? We offer fast and secure access to Shenzhen’s best video production equipment, including camera, lighting, and grip packages. Our in-house logistics team ensures everything is prepped and tested before the shoot day.
Location Scouting: Urban, Coastal, and Corporate
Shenzhen’s visual diversity is one of its biggest assets. We help you scout and secure locations that match your creative brief — from shimmering skyscrapers in Futian, to sandy beaches in Dameisha, to industrial zones and manufacturing plants in Bao’an. We also offer local talent casting and set design services to further elevate your production.
Visa, Travel, and Customs Assistance
Bringing your team into China? We offer support with crew visas, invitation letters, and gear customs clearance. For teams traveling from Hong Kong, we can coordinate smooth border crossings and transport logistics between cities.
Fixers & On-Ground Coordination
Our fixers are fluent in English and Mandarin and provide invaluable local insight — assisting with scheduling, translation, cultural mediation, and on-the-ground problem-solving. They ensure everything runs efficiently so you can stay focused on creative execution.
Trusted by Global Brands
We’ve supported shoots in Shenzhen and beyond for brands and broadcasters including BBC, Discovery Channel, Bloomberg, Siemens, DJI, Huawei, and numerous tech startups looking to showcase their innovations on the world stage. Whether you’re producing a corporate video, mini-doc, branded content, or live event coverage, we deliver international standards with local agility.
