Research & Ideas
Our researchers can get all the necessary information about any story: whether it deals with current affairs, recent history or archaeological excavations in Israel. We provide visual research and production coordination in Israel for many documentary films, corporate videos and TV shows. Therefore, our experience enables us to suggest locations and interviews with local experts. Our researchers all have a lot of experience with international productions and are fluent in several languages.
Local creative collaboration
We have a lot of experience with creative collaboration with visiting scriptwriters, screenwriters, DoP’s, directors and production designers. So we provide all local visual research and production coordination in Israel and Palestine for a variety of projects: among them the history of modern Israel, science innovations, the archaeology of the Judean Desert, politics, finance and any other area of knowledge. Often we have department heads traveling to Israel, where the team go with local professionals.
Production Coordination
The coordinator, or fixer, is our front person in the production and has the abilities to handle all location-related issues. Our coordinators are production managers and line producers, very experienced in historical, religious or current affairs productions.
Visual Research
We have regular working relations with the leading archives in Israel for photos, film and other visual sources. Consequently, we can track and clear any historical footage in Israel, and locate new historical footage from private archives.
The Highlight Films team includes both Israeli and Palestinian researchers and coordinators, who are all fluent in many languages.
