Productions: Starting in 1981, Omar Veytia Productions produced the first concert. Since then Omar Veytia Productions has promoted and produced over 150 shows for international acts in the northern part of México. The experience gained from production, promotion and management eventually spilled over to film, from an initial work as production liaison and location manager for Santana’s video “Right On” until today. We have provided services for numerous feature, commercial, television and video productions that have been shot south of the border. In addition, Omar Veytia managed Baja Norte Studios and co-produced 35 episodes for Sony Television. Currently he has signed to joint venture with Metropolis Pictures to package three feature films to be shot in Baja. We basically shelter productions from beginning to end, with enough knowledge and experience to back it up. No mark-ups and no hidden costs.


Services offered when shooting in México are: production liaison, producer, production consultant, production manager, location scouting and management, providing crews, permits (film, customs, immigration, security…), payroll, agreements with talent, crew unions.
