SHELTER.FILM PARTNER WITH JW COLLECTIVE.
12 September 2023

Production services company shelter.film have carved out a niche for themselves in Eastern Europe with branches in Tbilisi and Kyiv, where they continue to triumph over adversity. Eager to shake things up in 2023 is out, the company have opened a new office in Brussels and joined JW Collective.

"We started working with shelter.film recently alongside our long-standing partner Radioaktivefilm in Georgia," explains founder Jane White. "The detail of the work they do is exceptional, so we are delighted to welcome them to JW Collective and look forward to introducing their talent to a wider commercials base."


That suits Albert Zurashvili, founder and executive producer at shelter.film, down to the ground: "Despite being in the heart of Europe, Brussels rarely comes to mind as a shooting service destination. We want to take advantage of bringing these new locations, facilities, crews and skillsets that are within a planet-friendly train ride to our clients."

One place he and Dorothee Hernandez (a new EP with in-depth knowledge of the market) cannot wait to show off is Lite Studios, home to one of the world's largest underwater studios. Coupled with a glut of on and off-screen talent on their doorstep, it sounds like Brussels is best.

To learn more about shelter.film and JW Collective's partner roster, call Jane White on 07831 544 274 or email jane.white@jwcollective.co.uk.
