Your
Australian Fixer

I recently worked with Marina Albert on a multi-stakeholder case study video project in Sydney Australia, and the experience was phenomenal. From the first call, it was evident that Marina was experienced, proactive, and knowledgeable.

She helped our team get visas, hired a great eight person local crew, sourced all of the equipment I was looking for, and went above and beyond from location scouting to negotiating gear budgets down, and kept the project on track, running smoothly, and on budget.

As a director traveling internationally for a shoot, having someone as capable and dependable as Marina on the ground made an enormous difference.

I’d strongly recommend Marina for all Australia-based productions, and hope to be able to work with her again in the future.

Marina planned the perfect 16 days for us across Australia on a film production for Boodles Jewellery, from Sydney to Lightning Ridge, the Great Barrier Reef, Kununurra, the Kimberley, Cygnet Bay Pearl Farm and Perth. She arranged our visas, carnet and permits, handled the travel logistics in some very remote places, kept the scheduling seamless from start to finish, and brought it all in under budget.

What really set Marina apart was her network. She had great contacts everywhere we went and found us the right characters and crew whenever we needed them. She knew how to arrange private planes, helicopters and houseboats, as well as access to Indigenous rock art sites, which opened up parts of the country we never could have reached on our own. She was also a pleasure to work with on the day-to-day, from call sheets to last-minute changes.

I wouldn’t hesitate to work with Marina again.

Marina worked with Bladesman Productions on the Boodles Australia production from November 2025 to May 2026.

Marina was incredible. Great communication. Creative solutions and fast results. She was able to handle the multiple moving parts required for our very sensitive confidential international production. We couldn’t have arranged what we needed in Sydney without her!

We hired Marina in June 2026 to support an international production for a long-time client ITW, and she was exactly the local partner we needed. She was proactive, responsive despite the time difference, and her local knowledge and attention to detail – especially during pre-production- gave both our team and our client confidence that everything was covered. The production went smoothly, the footage turned out great, and we’d absolutely hire her again.

I worked with Marina Albert on a recent series of live broadcasts in collaboration with the Sunrise program and Destination NSW. Marina led the pre production/content gathering and joined us on location for the live broadcasts between 19-23 May 2025. I would highly recommend Marina to assist on any production/fixing project in the future. Marina is thorough, transparent, loyal and understands what makes great content. She builds strong relationships with stakeholders and adds enormous value with her knowledge of the industry.

I highly recommend working with Marina on any upcoming projects — a true professional, hard worker, dedicated, a great communicator and delivered above & beyond on everything she was tasked with and thrown her way at the last minute throughout production. Couldn’t say enough good things and she should be everyone’s first call when filming in Australia!

I loved working with Marina for a recent Microsoft corporate video shoot in Sydney. She went out of her way – and above and beyond – to make sure our team was prepared ahead of time, and she helped us put together a stellar local crew. She is kind and generous, and I look forward to collaborating again in the future.

“Bringing Anthony Bourdain No Reservations to Sydney was much easier with Marina on our team.  Her knowledge of the local permitting process and visa requirements was invaluable to us and her ability to get things done on the ground made for a smooth shoot – there’s no one better in Sydney!”

“Marina Albert is like the Mary Poppins of fixers…
…She can make the impossible possible and pull permits out of her handbag like magic. A time sensitive production required multiple filming locations, set dressing, the co-operation of Tourism Australia and Destination NSW, catering for a cast of 80 along with juggling an ever changing schedule. All of which was handled with aplomb. Her contact book is priceless. You
want a kangaroo? Got it. You want a BBQ on a beach? Done. Marina Albert? Practically perfect in every way”

Marina put together a very last minute shoot for me in Sydney. Despite the rush nature of the project, I arrived in Sydney to a very organized production and a wonderful crew. Couldn’t have asked for anything more – I’ll definitely be working with Marina again on my next Australia production.

Marina is an efficient and reliable ‘fixer’ who just gets things done. Fast, accurate and reliable, she continues to really help us with media famils and production at Tourism Australia.

“Marina was invaluable in providing seamless production solutions for our client, in a time sensitive and demanding shoot – on the other side of the world from our sales office. A valued partner across timezones”.

Marina, organised every detail of our Aquabumps family Northern Territory trip with Tourism Australia. From our accomodation, flights, car hire, dinners, experiences and was on call for any questions and confirmations ahead of time. A true professional – with warmth and genuine care and love for what she does. It was a trip of a lifetime – made even more incredible with her accuracy and eye for detail.

Marina is a true professional. Our HQ is based in Singapore and we needed a shoot done in Melbourne. She organised the camera crew and everything that came with it expertly and professionally.
It was done on time and on demand.

I loved working with Marina on a skeleton crew shoot in QLD. She was quick to react to our brief, crewed it perfectly and dealt with a lot of last minute changes and hold requests with flexibility and professionalism. I highly recommend Marina, she is absolutely lovely to work with!

Although Marina was going in for surgery at the time, she provided payroll services and production support on our project. She was super responsive and organised, despite the time difference between Sydney and the UK where I’m based, and also despite being in recovery post surgery. I appreciated how quickly she acted to assemble crew and her continued diligence and expertise that helped the project to run smoothly.

Marina the miracle worker. She pulled off a shoot of 12 locations, two talents and very tight shooting schedule in Sydney with about a week’s notice from us. I’m forever in her debt for making us look like legends for our very happy client in San Francisco who could not believe what we achieved. Not only that, she did it under budget and returned the surplus! Thoroughly recommend her.

“Marina Albert is an asset to any production visiting Australia. Our production (Cameron Dallas Project – Netflix Doco) took us from Perth to Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney. Throughout, Marina’s vast knowledge and experience of production streamlined the process. Her crew contacts are stellar and she can procure filming at the very best locations. She is a pleasure to have on set and is incredibly supportive when working remotely”.

Marina is a highly experienced specialist in coordinating media visits to NSW and Australia and her work is absolutely outstanding. She has in depth knowledge and experience about Australian locations, deep experience in handling visits by television crews from all over the world and incredible contacts which help make things happen. She has also worked with many international journalists helping them uncover new and interesting stories about Australian food, wine, tourism, lifestyle, cultural, heritage, nature, adventure and major events. She is great to work with and I recommend her services without hesitation.

I have worked with Marina for a number of years and on a variety of exciting projects with International Media. She has a solid understanding of their requirements including experiences and accommodation requirements given cultural differences. Marina is the ultimate professional in her field and a true stand out. I can strongly recommend Marina based on not only her skills but also her wonderful warmth and personal approach.

Marina is the best. I have worked closely with her for cover shoots and articles for a travel magazine that I was leading and the way she put together our schedules in Australia was flawless and her in-depth knowledge of the destination, its cuisine, people & culture added 100x to what we were creating. She is a treasure trove of knowledge and impeccable in her organising abilities.

Marina is a wonderful person to work with. She’s detail in every step, I really enjoyed working with her

Marina is a highly experienced producer, production manager and fixer with expert knowledge of Australia. She has worked on many high profile international film and television productions as well as media visits for leading Australian and international media. She has a very professional approach to all aspects of her work and is a pleasure to deal with.

One of the most friendly, reliable, and trustworthy fixers I have met. Pity she is so busy that we have been unable to hire her for some of our projects. Highly recommend Marina and having known her for over 15 years impressed with the consistency in the quality of her work.

The best part of my Sydney experience was Marina’s ability to find solutions to my seemingly endless list of problems. For that I am extremely grateful. All thanks to your professionalism and no-nonsense approach.

I first worked with Marina when I was starting my career as a producer and she was the best mentor I could ask for. I watched her in awe as she tackled multiple roles on set – client, producer, stylist, runner, location manager. She is the reason why I have never blinked an eye at managing multiple roles on projects because I have always followed her lead.

I had a quick turn video project traveling between two destinations in Australia, Sydney and Adelaide. Marina was able to quickly source a fantastic crew in both locations, she has tremendous contacts. She handled all travel logistics and communications with the crews, allowing me to focus on the creative storytelling. Marina’s help made all the difference in pulling off these complicated productions, and I thank her greatly. I will certainly call her right away the next time I have a production anywhere in Australia. Thanks, Marina!
