Fixer in Vietnam was very honoured to recommend all shooting locations and activities to Bloom Medya, the production company of the show. Bloom Medya is one of the largest production companies in Turkey.
For the team of Vietnam fixer, organizing the transport, logistics and arranging permits for this kind of show was not easy. DIVA and celebs did not follow any fixed shooting schedule so the plan had to be very flexible. It was a really tough task for a fixer in Vietnam because they had to deal with different management boards of Ha Long Bay, Trang An Landscape Complex and Cuc Phuong National Park where the filming rules were strict. Furthermore, plan to film at private properties like nail salon, hospital and street food restaurant was also changed in the last minute and it took time and effort to rearrange...
However, finally, the supporting team has arranged everything smoothly and meet the film requirements. Bloom Medya has achieved its filming in Vietnam successfully. Above all, this was a really precious and priceless experience for the team of fixer in Vietnam.
