Work with an award-winning camera crew for your Seoul, South Korea video production
If you’re considering creating a corporate video in South Korea, it’s natural for you to consider Seoul. The capital city is at the center of the South Korean creative sector and, amid global recognition for K-pop and the Korean film industry, it is one of the hottest cities in the world.
Seoul is so large and diverse that it can serve up a number of different backdrops for your production, whether you’re most interested in a modern cityscape, green suburbs or even historical monuments. The Seoul Film Commission notes a wide range of architectural attractions — some date back to before Seoul became the capital in 1394, while others are so modern as to seem almost futuristic.
As an example of the city’s historical legacy, in the center of the downtown area, you’ll find the fourteenth-century Changgyeonggung Palace, restored to show off its old-time splendor. On the other end of the spectrum, Cheongdam Fashion Street in the Gangnam district is a sleek, modern row of high-end shops and fancy restaurants frequented by celebrities. For a refined cultural experience, you can check the National Museum of Korea and its sprawling grounds.
Wherever you turn, there are great filmmaking locales and film set possibilities in Seoul. Now, you need to find the ideal production team to help you, with experts in every role from the producer to each individual crew member.
Why work with an expert camera crew in Seoul?
Pairing up with an expert video crew from Crews Control is a way to immediately gain access to filmmaking skill, local know-how and top-notch equipment. It’s unusual for companies to have in-house video departments capable of producing professional-grade corporate video, which is why working with Crews Control in Seoul is a game-changer.
Expert video production crew members can fulfill a variety of important roles — videography, sound recording, editing, post production, even navigation, permit pulling and interpreting. If you’re producing video content in Seoul for the first time, a Crews Control team that knows the region can be indispensable. Even if you’ve been working in the city for years, these experts can likely still teach you some tricks.
The scale and intensity of Seoul can be intimidating — it’s a big city with a highly developed creative infrastructure. Finding your place and getting your video produced to a high standard are easier tasks with a Crews Control producer on your side.

What makes Seoul a unique filming location?
When setting out to make your Seoul video production a success, you have a range of factors to consider. Have you picked the right time of year to film? Are you in the right neighborhood to get the types of shots you need? Is your camera operator filming the skyline from its best possible angle? An experienced production crew can help you answer these questions and keep you on the right track. To thrive in Seoul, you should:
- Know what type of permit you need: The process for receiving filming permission depends on where you’re shooting. For properties under the control of the Seoul Metropolitan Government, you go through the Seoul Film Commission, which also handles communications and parking.
- Get inspiration from Hollywood: You can take advantage of world-class studio facilities and film production infrastructure in Seoul. Internationally known movies such as director Bong Joon-ho’s Okja and the second Avengers film took advantage of Seoul filmmaking resources.
- Pick your season: If you’re hoping to do outdoor filming, the best seasons in Seoul are late spring through autumn. During the cold Korean winters, you’ll sometimes find that the Hangang River has frozen solid. Fall is the best season to capture distinctive outdoor views, as the trees break out in colorful autumn leaves.
- Plan out your travel: Ideal methods of getting to Seoul and traveling around the city will differ depending on the size of your film crew. If you have only a few people on the team and are traveling light, trains can be your best bet. There are high-speed rail lines connecting Korea’s major cities, with five major stations in Seoul alone. Of course, for a more equipment-intensive shoot with more film crew positions, you may need to rent or hire a van.
Everything from getting around to shooting B-roll to finding tasty restaurants at the end of the day is easier when you have a local camera crew on your side. These are some of the many ways a Crews Control team and production coordinator can help your video shoot go smoothly.

Prepared, Creative, Professional and on the 10 scale an 11
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!
