We are Ready To Shoot

We have been delivering world-class production services to both international and local clients for over 26 years. By combining creative vision with practical expertise, we support top-tier studios, media companies, advertising agencies, production houses, and entertainment brands. Our reputation is built on meticulous attention to detail and a proven ability to bring even the most ambitious briefs to life.

With access to a diverse talent pool and an exceptional range of locations, we offer unmatched production flexibility. From our central hub in Lisbon, within just 1.5 hours, we can provide beach, urban, downtown, rural, and mountain settings. Ready to Shoot partners with clients to showcase the very best that Portugal, as well as the Azores and Madeira islands, have to offer.

Our portfolio includes major international productions such as the Netflix feature film Heart of Stone, directed by Tom Harper and produced by Patty Whitcher, which was partially filmed in Portugal over 27 days. We also serviced StudioCanal’s period feature film The Custom of the Country, directed by Josie Rourke, which was entirely shot in Portugal over 36 days. Additionally, Margarida Adónis served as Line Producer for an international Disney+ series produced by LaZona, with an 83-day shoot in Portugal. The 7-episode series is set to premiere in spring 2025.

We are proud to have established a partnership with highly experienced producer Scott Horan in Spain, enabling Ready to Shoot to provide the same high-quality production services across both Portugal and Spain.

Since 2022, Ready to Shoot Portugal has also been part of Red Bull’s Talent Pool.

Still can't believe the friendliness and kindness of the people you've made me work with, not to speak of their professionalism and devotion. Was wonderful seeing you and your people share that 'mental WiFi' which turns work from good to great. And they all know they couldn't have a better boss.

  • "Fast and fabulous!"

    Wolf Stundl Wolf Stundl, Executive Producer, Wunderfilm, Hamburg  

  • 'Why do we love shooting in Lisbon? It is because we feel as we were at home, and that feeling is hard to experience when one works away from his country? Or because of its beautiful features, its people, its good vibe...? Because its delicacies have filled us with joy and thrilled our souls? Undoubtedly, due to the warmth of everything that has surrounded us. But above all, it´s because we have found a family; a relationship we know will remain with us forever. Marga and company... We are eternally grateful! Love, for ever...'

    Baby Director, Rebolucion
