About me

សួស្តី ('Sus-day" or 'Hello' in Cambodian language)

I am Sopheak, a local film / video production fixer -a.k.a. line producer- who also happens to speak English and have a bit of the experience and the skills you are looking for :)

My job, in a nutshell, is to give your project piece of mind while shooting in Cambodia by helping you:
- Find all the resources you need, e.g.: locations, talent, crew, gear, logistics, etc.
- Process any necessary permits, customs clearance license, and visas for your crew and cast
- Get the best deals for anything or anyone you need to hire, buy or rent, so that you stay on budget!
- Coordinate with locals in order to allow your project to run as smoothly and headache-free as possible.
- Manage any crisis that may arise, but hopefully not, during production.
- Communicate with Khmer-speaking people effectively through my English-Khmer interpretations.
- Supervise the production until a successful completion.

Rest assured that my powerful network within the government and film industry, my film-videomaking experience, as well as my solid knowledge of my home, Cambodia, make me and my team the right choice for your upcoming shoot.

Contact me... Let's get your production rolling!

---[[ ABOUT ME ]]---

I was born and raised in Cambodia, the so-called Kingdom of Wonder. Based in Phnom Penh, I have been working in the Film / TV industry since 2015, when I embarked on the American feature film "In the Life of Music" (2017) as 2nd assistant director and interpreter.

Ever since then I have been working as a fixer (a.k.a. field producer, local producer, local production coordinator or "remote line producer"), 1st AD (assistant director) and English-Khmer interpreter for international and local cinema, television and digital productions shot in Cambodia, including TV commercials (TVCs), documentaries, narrative short and feature films, as well as TV Shows.
