Message from Chairman
Dear Friends,
Fixer in Türkiye operates under the Medisa Films umbrella, providing field production, permit coordination, and logistical support for international film productions. Our mission is to bridge Türkiye’s cinematic potential with the global film industry, positioning the country as a premier filming destination.
As the Chairman of the Turkish Film Commission, my focus is on elevating Türkiye’s presence on the global cinematic stage. With over 20 years of experience in the film industry, I am committed to showcasing our country’s unique locations and facilitating seamless production processes for international projects. Through Fixer in Türkiye, we leverage Medisa Films’ infrastructure and expertise to deliver exceptional production services tailored to the specific needs of foreign productions.
At Fixer in Türkiye, we handle the logistical challenges of international shoots — from securing filming permits and coordinating with local authorities to managing cultural differences and sourcing skilled crews. As a Field Producer, I ensure that each project is executed with precision, detail-oriented planning, and a problem-solving mindset.
Medisa Films, with its extensive experience and strong network, serves as the backbone of our operations, offering comprehensive support ranging from location scouting and equipment sourcing to full-scale logistical management. This dual structure allows us to effectively handle complex productions while maintaining the highest standards of service.
Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working with some of the world’s most renowned broadcasters and studios, including Discovery Channel, History Channel, Warner Bros, TNT Sports, NHK Japan, Arte TV France, BBC UK, and SAT.1 Germany. These projects not only strengthened Türkiye’s reputation as a filming hub but also established Fixer in Türkiye and Medisa Films as reliable partners for international productions.
Our objective is to present Türkiye’s rich cultural heritage and stunning landscapes to the world, from the historic streets of Istanbul to the captivating vistas of Cappadocia. Each project is an opportunity to elevate Türkiye’s profile as a prime cinematic canvas for global productions.
I extend my heartfelt gratitude to all the producers, local stakeholders, and international collaborators who have placed their trust in us. With each new project, we take another step forward in solidifying Türkiye’s place in the global film industry. Together, under the banners of Fixer in Türkiye and Medisa Films, we will continue to deliver exceptional cinematic experiences.
Thank you for your continued support and partnership. Let’s keep moving forward, one frame at a time.
Best regards,
M. Sait YARDIMCI
