The Karnataka shoot brought host Derrick Campana and the international production team to Bannerghatta National Park in Bengaluru and The Bison Resort in Kabini. Working in wildlife areas requires detailed planning, multiple permissions and close coordination with the relevant authorities.

Filming Indo managed the local production process so the visiting team could focus on the stories, contributors and filming schedule.

Managing Wildlife Filming Permissions

Filming in national parks, forests and zoological locations involves more than a standard location approval. The production required coordination across the Embassy process, the Karnataka Forest Department, the location’s zoo authority and local management.

Filming Indo handled these requirements alongside the journalist visa process, transport and production arrangements, providing the overseas team with one local point of contact.
