Find an award-winning video production crew in Frankfurt
The city of Frankfurt combines high-rise office towers with a traditional German town square. With the river Main flowing through, Frankfurt has been a longtime destination for travelers, and was recently named one of the Economist’s 10 Most Livable Cities.
When it’s time to find a European city to film your next round of corporate videos, Frankfurt is a top contender. It’s easy to be drawn in by the combination of old-fashioned and modern architecture, easily accessible location and simple navigation within the city limits.
If you’re considering Frankfurt for a video shoot, you can further boost your chances of success by working with a team of video media production experts from Crews Control. These experienced professionals not only understand the technical aspects of filming, they’re also experts at navigating and making the most of their region, and can point you to the best parts of Frankfurt.
Why work with expert video professionals in Frankfurt?
Having an expert video crew on your side is important because most brands don’t have fully featured internal video departments. With an increasing number of brands committing to impressive corporate video content, viewers’ standards are rising. To meet those expectations without investing in extra salaries or professional filming equipment, you can team up with Crews Control.
Especially if you’re traveling to Germany from elsewhere in the world, it pays to have contact with crew members who have already worked in the country. Crews Control directors of photography know how to work with local government agencies to receive filming permits, ensuring even the most complex outdoor shoot goes without a hitch. Having assistance from these experts can also help you deal with the language barrier — bringing in a film production operation from the United States, United Kingdom or elsewhere isn’t always a seamless process, because many Frankfurt locals don’t speak English.
Even the most welcoming and suitable city for a video production is easier to work in when your brand teams up with a crew of longtime professionals. Having Crews Control’s personnel on hand to manage the technical and logistical aspects of filmmaking allows you to focus on the brand vision that’s driving the whole effort.

What makes Frankfurt a unique corporate video location?
There are numerous sides to Frankfurt, and if you have the right team, you can see and film them all. Once the winter ends and the city warms up, Frankfurt is a perfect locale for outdoor corporate video production, whether you want Old World charm or hyper-modern downtown energy. Crews Control experts will guide you through the city’s peculiarities, offering tips such as:
- Seek out medieval architecture: Römerberg Square, home to a medieval town hall building, is a slice of ancient architecture in the center of modern-day Frankfurt. For crews hoping to situate their videos in an olden-day vision of Europe, this square and the houses around it are unmissable B-roll features.
- Take in the modern skyline: In addition to its old-fashioned features, Frankfurt is also home to the most modern collection of skyscrapers in Germany — the Main river is sometimes nicknamed “Mainhattan” because of them. Whether filmed on their own or as a direct contrast to the medieval buildings, the Frankfurt high-rises are great window dressing for corporate videos.
- Know what kind of permit you need: The permitting process for filming on public property in Frankfurt differs depending on your intentions. There is a short-notice option that works for small crews, while larger productions will need to apply for a more complicated permit, especially when they have to take actions such as blocking off roads.
- Pick your transportation option: Frankfurt is a reasonably sized city with affordable taxis and plenty of underground parking for crews that use their own vans. For those who prefer public transit, the trains are a great option: the airport is just 12 minutes from the city center by train.
Whether you’re navigating to a perfect B-roll location or just trying to sample the local cuisine — Frankfurt has a tradition of apple wine, as well as world-class Mexican, Indian and Persian offerings — a Crews Control director of photography can help. With experts on your side, Frankfurt can become your company’s video production home, whether you have an office there or you’re visiting for the first time.

I’ve been producing and directing videos for Broadcast (NBC/ABC/CNN/C-SPAN) and Corporate for over 30 years – and Matthew and Dan were one of the best crews I have EVER worked with.
Thanks
Dan
The footage was well done.
Just got out of the edit. Tim did a great job. Considering the talent we gave him to work with, I would go as far as to say he’s a bit of a magician.
Thanks for the help!
Jim
Thanks for the great shoot yesterday.
Everything was great and I wanted to let you know that our Executive Producer said the footage we got from the different regions was the best footage he had ever seen come from remote crews that we didn’t have control over. That is a great compliment coming from him.
I appreciate all your help and look forward to working with you again!
