Albania Film Fixing Projects
We’re experienced Albania fixers who have worked on diverse film, TV and photographic projects in Albania and Kosovo, from providing general scouting and fixing services to filming a full documentary, using local cameramen, editors and sound technicians
KITCHEN IMPOSSIBLE 2024
“This was the second time that we asked Besnik and his team to cooperate with us for our international cooking and travel format. Besnik was always easy to reach and very committed to supporting us as a fixer in planning the shoot. He was very helpful before and during the shoot and contributed his own ideas and knowledge of the region very well. His friendly and relaxed manner facilitated and enriched the preparations and execution of our work. His team, who accompanied us over the two days of filming, were – like Besnik – professional and reliable. We would like to thank Besnik and his team and will certainly be using him and his services again should we shoot in Albania again.”

Joanna Lumley's Silk Road Adventure
British actress Joanna Lumley travelled through the Balkan region for part of her TV special following the route of the ancient Silk Road. We provided support for the crew during their time in Albania, while they traced the route of the Via Egnatia Roman road.
90 Day Fiancé
US TV show 90 Day Fiancé travelled to Albania in winter 2019. We looked after cast and crew in Tirana and north Albania, providing advice on locations, on-the-ground fixing services, transport and drivers.
Eva zu Beck for Euronews
In December 2020, during the Covid crisis, we provided fixing and transport services for well-known YouTuber Eva zu Beck, who was in Albania to film several segments for Euronews. We provided location and story advice, and accompanied Eva and the Euronews crew throughout the shoot.
Leander Varekamp Portrait of Humanity Prize
Acclaimed Dutch photographer Leander Varekamp asked us to help him photograph the last suriving burneshas (sworn virgins) in Albania and Kosovo. As well as setting up the various photoshoots, we provided translation and transport services. Leander’s photos won a 2018 Portrait of Humanity prize.
Roser Corella's Prisoners of Kanun
We worked with award-winning film-maker Roser Corella on the shoot of her documentary, Prisoners of Kanun. In the film Roser explored the impact of Albania’s blood feud culture, in which revenge can be taken out on any male family member. There are several families in the north of the country whose menfolk literally cannot leave their houses without running the risk of being killed. This shoot obviously required a lot of work to win the trust of the families concerned, and was one of our most rewarding projects to date.
Penny Marshall's Sworn Virgin Report for ITV News
In 2018 we provided film fixing services for ITV News reporter Penny Marshall, who was in Albania to shoot a report on our famous burneshas, or sworn virgins – women who have lived their lives as men. We provided full support and translation for Penny, taking her to hard-to-reach rural areas to interview these incredible women. You can watch her report at the ITV News YouTube channel.
Roser Corella’s Prisoners of Kanun Project
Working with Nik as a fixer in Albania was very helpful and he became an indispensable member of the crew during the filming process. I had the feeling from the first moment we were a team, working together with the same goal, always motivated and hardworking. He understood perfectly the needs of the project and he was truly involved and dedicated. He wanted the film project to succeed, so he always tried to find the best contacts and get the best of everything. It was a pleasure to work with a professional like him. Looking forward to working with him again!
90 Day Fiancé in Albania, 2019
Nik was my fixer in summer 2018 on my first foreign photography project. Nik knows the right people to make your project a success, and is a great interpreter and driver.
