Production Designers
Visionary production designers creating immersive worlds inspired by Colombia's colonial fortresses, Andean haciendas, and vibrant Caribbean streetscapes.
The production designer is the head of the art department, responsible for creating the entire visual environment of a film or television production. In Colombia, this role draws on a stunning range of architectural references — from Cartagena's walled city and colonial fortresses to the San Agustín Archaeological Park, the Coffee Cultural Landscape's traditional fincas, and Bogotá's La Candelaria historic quarter. Our designers understand how to translate these distinctive Colombian settings into compelling screen worlds.
We connect you with production designers who bring deep local knowledge and international-level craft to every project. With access to TIS Studios (Paramount), RCN Studios, and Caracol Studios in Bogotá, our network ensures your production's visual world is built with the right resources, leveraging Colombia's up to 40% film incentive.

Production Design Expertise
What's the difference between a production designer and art director?
The production designer is the head of the art department, responsible for the overall visual concept and working directly with the director. The art director reports to the production designer and oversees the execution of that vision — managing construction, coordinating the team, and handling day-to-day operations.
How do production designers work with Colombian heritage architecture?
Our production designers have extensive experience working with Colombia's protected heritage sites, including the Cartagena walled city, San Agustín Archaeological Park, and the Coffee Cultural Landscape. They understand ICANH and MinCultura permit requirements and coordinate with regional authorities.
Can you handle both studio builds and locations?
Yes, our production designers excel at combining studio construction at facilities like TIS Studios and RCN Studios with practical locations across Colombia. They design sets that match location work and adapt real spaces to serve your story's visual requirements.
What about period productions in Colombia?
Our production designers have extensive experience with historical periods, drawing on Colombia's Spanish colonial architecture, pre-Columbian sites, and republican-era buildings. They have access to local research archives, museum collections, and period specialists familiar with Latin American design history.
Do you provide the full art department?
Yes, we can staff complete art departments scaled to your production. This includes art directors, set decorators, prop masters, construction coordinators, and all supporting roles sourced from Colombia's growing and experienced crew base.
How do production designers work with other departments?
Production designers collaborate closely with cinematography on lighting requirements, costume on visual palette, VFX on digital extensions, and locations on practical considerations. They're the visual hub coordinating all design elements.
