7 chemins production is a new production service company recently opened by Benoît GUILBAUD to be able to welcome foreign crews wanting to film in France. Either for documentaries, commercials, web content or journalist support we will adapt sharply to your needs at the lowest cost.
My name is Benoit and with 7 chemins production, I will be happy to provide whatever shoot services you need in France. I have 25 years of experience in shootings in Paris and all-around France, mainly on features, commercial or TV series.
If you have a shoot to organize during the Olympics, my team and I will be ready to satisfy everybody at the cheapest cost. It can be organizing an interview and a portrait of a sportsman, obtaining permit and recommendations for beauty shots in Paris for instance.

With my experience, I already know a very wide range of locations available for shooting. Always looking for new spots, I should be able to show you very quickly some propositions according to your brief.
Permits
Once locations are chosen, I will secure the permits whether it is a local administration or a private place. In Paris or the surrounding area, I already have very good connections with local authorities.
Budget
By having only 1 contact person, it makes the communication fluid and keeps the budget reasonable.
Local crew
The French technicians I recommend are all independent workers and have strong experience with a variety of shoots from TV shows to features, they are all used to foreign crews and are English speakers.
Equipment rentals
If you need to rent an Alexa or any technical equipment, or if you just forgot something, we have very good relationships with all suppliers in France like for example TSF, RVZ, Next Shot, Vantage, Panavision.
Logistics
According to your budget, we can suggest hotels, restaurants. Of course, during the shoot, we can take care of craft service as well as lunch for the crew.
