Hello from Bad Bird!
Based in Scotland, I specialise in production services for commercials, music videos and fashion shoots. From the northern Islands right down to the Borders, I can realise your shoots in any corner of Scotland with great crew, the best equipment and locations to match your creative.

Miscellaneous
I will also take care of all of the other bits like health & safety, insurance, and adherence to local laws
Specialist areas
Shooting in distilleries is a whole world of its own. Having successfully filmed at 10 different distilleries on more than 15 shoots, I am an expert at navigating the rigorous health & safety requirements of these sensitive sites to deliver the best results for you and your clients.
Whisky
Scotland's dramatic landscapes are home to many stunning roads. Whether you need to promote a car brand or simply shoot a driving sequence, I can advise on timescales, equipment, traffic management options, and best sites for your creative.
Cars
High end talent and athletes often have a host of considerations other shoots don't. I've worked with premier league footballers, A-list actors and musicians, as well as famous politicians. I can ensure all your bases are covered to make your VIPs as happy as possible on set.

About me
Marii Stoltsen - Producer. Fixer. Production Manager.
Based in Scotland, I am a reliable and experienced fixer to service your shoots, whatever your requirements. Please check out the list of services and specialist filming areas that I am able to help with.
I do occasionally venture further afield, with quite a few projects under my belt working out of Manchester and London, so please feel free to get in touch wherever you need to shoot in the UK.
Having bid, won and managed budgets up to £3mil, I have expert knowledge of APA, fashion and music video rates; great crew and supplier contacts across the UK; experience working with the highest end of specialist equipment and facilities on very technical shoots; and the ability to manage production teams, budgets, time and expectations with confidence.
I have worked with A-list celebrities, football talent and fashion icons for brands such as Apple, Atlantic Records, Aviva, Bentley, BMW, Glenfiddich, The Macallan, McDonald's, Sony Music, Stella McCartney and Valentino (to name a few).
