Video Production Services in Zurich — Your Local Production Partner in Switzerland

Viven AG is a Zurich-based production company that works as the Swiss arm of your production: your creative, your director, our ground operation. We have produced for UBS, Siemens, Porsche, ON, FIFA, Philips and Kanebo — the Kanebo work coming out of Japan, so we know exactly what it takes to plug a local unit into an international pipeline: clear reporting lines, deliverables that match your post workflow, and no time lost to translation. Founder Sebastian Cepeda produced the first Swiss feature film on Netflix, and that feature-level discipline in scheduling, budgeting and set management runs through every service production we take on. We shoot across all of Switzerland and Europe.

You send the brief; we staff the shoot with department heads we work with every week.

• Crew: senior DOP, gaffer and sound recordist as the core unit, scaled up with ACs, grips and production assistants as your shoot requires.
• Camera: Sony FX6 packages with cinema optics.
• Lighting and movement: LED lighting packages and DJI Ronin stabilisation.
• Transport: a production van is included, so gear and crew move as one unit.

Everything is quoted as a single package. You are not chasing separate rental houses, insurance riders and freelancers across time zones — we own the whole line.

Switzerland rewards preparation: cities, transport authorities and protected landscapes each have their own permitting rules, and lead times decide whether your schedule holds. We handle filming permits in Zurich and cities across the country, and we scout and secure locations to match your boards — urban streets and rooftops, lakesides, Alpine roads and peaks, and studio stages when you need controlled conditions. We also run local casting, from professional actors to real-people talent, and manage releases and usage rights so your legal team has nothing to untangle later.

Line production means the unglamorous work is finished before your team lands.

• Transport, accommodation and per diems for cast and crew
• Production insurance and risk documentation
• Schedules, call sheets and company moves between locations
• A bilingual producer and fixer embedded with your team from prep through wrap

We produce in English, German and Spanish, so nothing gets lost between your agency, the client and a Swiss location owner. And you get one contact and one transparent budget in CHF — itemised, realistic, and defended on set.

If you want to finish in Switzerland, we offer editing, colour grading and VFX in-house, plus subtitling in English, German and Spanish. If post stays with your team at home, we deliver organised, backed-up footage with camera and sound reports the moment wrap is called.

Send us your script, treatment or shot list together with your shoot window. Within days you will have a realistic CHF budget, a crew plan and a permit assessment — and a production office in Zurich that treats your shoot as its own.
