FILM SET SECURITY, CINEMATIC EQUIPMENT RENTAL, TRANSPORT AND LOGISTICS FOR MAJOR TV PRODUCTIONS
Cinema, Television & Broadcast Intelligence, We Protect the World's Imagination.
Movie Group: The Security Bastion Behind Every Great Production.
From the highly classified productions of Hollywood Major Studios to the dynamic sets of Netflix and Sky Studios series, Movie Group is the logistical and security partner that allows creativity to flow without interruption. Managing a large-scale film set or television production is not just surveillance: it is controlled chaos management. We are the invisible infrastructure protecting actors, crews, and industry secrets in every location, from the soundstages of Cinecittà to the most crowded piazzas in Italy.
Set Security & Anti-Piracy Management.
In an era of digital leaks and spoilers, intellectual property protection starts on the ground. We implement rigorous Anti-Paparazzi and NDA Enforcement protocols, creating total bubbles of confidentiality around the most sensitive sets (Marvel, Lucasfilm, Disney). Our personnel are trained to manage not only physical security but also the protection of the project's image, ensuring nothing escapes the perimeter prior to the global premiere.
Operational Logistics for Majors and Broadcasters.
Partnering with giants like Amazon MGM, Warner Bros, and Universal requires extreme flexibility. Movie Group provides 360-degree coverage: from Unit Base Security (24/7 protection of base camps, technical vehicles, and production assets), to Crowd & Traffic Control (managing public flows and road permits for exterior shoots), down to VIP & Talent Close Protection (dedicated escorts and privacy management for international talent).
The Reliability of Major Italian Productions.
Our expertise is deeply rooted in the fabric of Italian cinema. From Rai Cinema to Medusa and Indiana Production, we understand the bureaucratic and logistical challenges of our territory. We operate throughout Italy with rapid response teams, equipped vehicles, and a problem-solving capacity that allows us to resolve logistical emergencies in minutes—because we know that on set, every lost second is an incalculable cost.
We guarantee total protection of the set, cast, and equipment (Camera Department, G&E, Art Department), surgically managing roadblocks for exteriors, processing local municipal permits, and neutralizing aerial threats via sophisticated Anti-Drone (C-UAS) protocols. With Movie Group, security and facilities rental become an invisible, flawless cog in your production machine, from the Base Camp load-in to the final wrap.
Live Broadcast & TV Production Security: Real-Time Protection
Movie Group: Zero Impact on the Broadcast, Total Security in the Backstage.
When the red light goes on, there is no room for error. Movie Group is the security architect for the biggest international and national Broadcasters (RAI, Sky, Amazon Prime Video), specializing in managing highly-pressured media events. From Red Carpet coordination to locking down the perimeters of major studios, we ensure the show goes on smoothly and flawlessly, no matter what happens off-camera.
The Value of Experience, From Sanremo to the World.
Our operational signature on the Sanremo Festival 2026 is our ultimate seal of guarantee. We have proven our ability to handle the pressure of millions of viewers, coordinating thousands of entries and protecting the world's most followed talent. At Movie Group, television security is an exact science: we protect the signal, we protect the cast, we protect your success.
