Risk Management

When it comes to making ambitious, memorable TV and film, there’s usually an element of risk. Filming penguins perched on the Antarctic shelf or bonobos in the Congolese jungle. Surfing with Chris Hemsworth in the Norwegian Arctic or 4×4 expeditions across the Sahara. We help your favourite shows pull off the impossible.

Whatever the project and whatever the goal, we make sure risk is handled responsibly, so you can concentrate on making great TV. As risk management experts, we work with you to identify and understand risk whilst guiding you and your stakeholders through control measures for your unique needs. Our in-depth risk analysis and management expertise will protect your people, your project, and your budget.
