TV Shows & Broadcast Series
Full-service television production for networks, streamers, and international broadcasters throughout Italy.
Television and broadcast series production makes episodic content for network, cable, and streaming release. These shoots run on structured broadcast workflows, so they must meet tech standards, delivery dates, and timelines. That demands skilled crews and tight operational management across whole seasons.
We give production support for television and broadcast series, and we set up the steady crew, gear, and location needs that episodic work demands. Our team handles the day-to-day logistics, which keeps your show on quality and on schedule from pilot through finale.

On Location
Network and streaming series production across Italy's broadcast ecosystem
Italian broadcast and streaming series production runs through a deep web of commissioners. These include Rai 1, Rai 2 and Rai 3 on the public TV networks, Canale 5 and Italia 1 under Mediaset/MediaForEurope, Sky Italia, La7, and the Italian arms of Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Disney+ and Paramount+. We give production support for episodic television shooting on Italian soil, setting up steady crew, gear and location needs across full season orders.
Our team works out of the Cinecittà and Mediaset stages in Rome and Cologno Monzese. We draw on department heads from the Roma Lazio, Apulia, Sicilia, Campania, Toscana and Friuli Venezia Giulia Film Commission areas. Location blocks span Renaissance city centres, Mediterranean coastlines, Alpine villages and the modern streets of Milan and Naples. These are the same places that anchor shows from Don Matteo and Montalbano to Gomorra and Doc. Nelle Tue Mani.
Series production is an operational craft, and we run it that way. Blocking by location rather than episode order gets the most out of full season slates. Second-unit and parallel crews are set up for action, stunt and aerial work. Italian post houses meet broadcast tech standards for HD, 4K, HDR and platform-specific deliverables. Casting runs through skilled Italian casting directors plugged into the Rome and Milan talent markets. Day-player and background planning goes through Italian background agencies.
On the ground, Italian script supervisors and department heads hold scene matching under CCNL Cinema Audiovisivo terms. The 40 percent MiC tax credit applies to eligible global co-productions. Our team handles the MiC forms, Italian partner introductions and the admin work that gets a broadcast season delivered on schedule.
Fast-turnaround series live on tight delivery windows. We build shoot calendars that hit weekly air dates without dropping the look. Parallel units and lean post run in step, so episodes move from camera to finish fast. Cast holds, location access and seasonal light are all tracked against the air slot. That keeps a full season order shipping on the dates RAI, Mediaset and Sky Italia set.
We field the camera and grip packages that single-camera and multi-camera series ask for. ARRI, RED and Sony bodies come from Italian rental houses. Each one is prepped and matched across units for a steady look. Post partners finish every episode to broadcast specs for HD, 4K and HDR. Delivery is tuned to the exact needs of network, cable and streaming. That keeps each episode passing QC the first time.
FAQ
Our Television Network
What types of TV series do you support in Italy?
We support every series format: scripted dramas, comedies, limited series, procedurals, period pieces, and global co-productions. Our work spans network television, premium cable, and streaming originals.
How do you handle multi-episode scheduling?
We build tight shoot schedules that block by location rather than episode order, so each location does more work and the crew moves less often. The plan also tracks actor availability, location access, and the season.
Can you support second unit and parallel production?
Yes. We often run multi-unit shoots with separate crews for main unit, second unit, and specialty shots. Our team handles the scheduling, gear, and crew planning across all the parallel units.
What broadcast standards do you deliver to?
We deliver to every major broadcast and streaming spec, including HD, 4K, HDR, and platform-specific tech needs. Our post partners make sure each deliverable meets the exact specs of your platform.
Do you provide casting services for series?
We connect your shoot with skilled Italian casting directors. They know the local talent market and what global productions need, and they handle principal casting, day players, and background talent across Italy.
How do you manage series continuity across episodes?
Our script supervisors and department heads keep detailed scene-matching records across every episode. We set up systems to track costumes, props, set dressing, and character details, which keeps the series consistent.
