OVERVIEW
This high-stakes geopolitical thriller from NBC required transforming Morocco into Mali and other North African locations. The story followed a stranded female soldier on the run, necessitating a “road movie” production style that moved constantly across different terrains.
CHALLENGES & APPROACH
Network Pace & “On-The-Run” Logistics.
Producing for a major US Network like NBC implies rigid deadlines and strict union compliance. The challenge was maintaining this corporate discipline while the unit was physically moving daily to capture the frenetic energy of the chase. My role was to ensure that the financial supply chain—petty cash, vendor payments, and payroll—kept pace with this rapid relocation, never delaying the tight broadcast schedule.
THE RESULT
The series delivered intense, cinematic action on a television timeline. We successfully managed the complex logistics of a multi-location shoot, proving our reliability for major US television networks.
