THE FIXER BRAZIL PODCAST

Conversations with the world’s leading filmmakers, producers, cinematographers, and storytellers about documentary filmmaking, wildlife, production, AI, and the art of bringing stories to life.

At Fixer Brazil, we believe that the best way to become better production partners is to learn from the people who inspire our industry. That’s why we created the Fixer Brazil Podcast.

Each episode features conversations with award-winning filmmakers, producers, directors of photography, wildlife specialists, and production professionals who have filmed in Brazil and around the world. Together, we explore not only the creative side of filmmaking, but also the practical realities of producing ambitious projects in one of the world’s most diverse countries.

Whether you’re planning to film in the Amazon rainforest, the Pantanal wetlands, the beaches of Rio de Janeiro, the streets of São Paulo, or anywhere between Brazil’s north and south, the podcast offers a unique behind-the-scenes perspective on what it really takes to produce here.
Our guests share their experiences from the field, the production challenges they faced, the solutions they discovered, and the lessons they learned while working in Brazil. From remote logistics and wildlife filmmaking to branded content, documentaries, corporate productions, and new technologies such as AI, every conversation is an opportunity to better understand both the craft of filmmaking and the country itself.

If you’re a producer, director, cinematographer, journalist, or content creator considering Brazil for your next project, this podcast is your opportunity to discover the country’s extraordinary filming locations, learn from experienced professionals, and gain valuable insights before your production begins.

The Fixer Brazil Podcast is more than a series of interviews. It’s a place where international filmmakers share knowledge, inspire one another, and celebrate the stories that connect Brazil with the rest of the world.
Because every great production begins long before the cameras start rolling.

BEYOND PRODUCING FILMS, WE LOVE TALKING ABOUT FILMMAKING.
