The war in Ukraine has led to some remarkable demonstrations of humanitarian support and a few previously unimaginable shows of solidarity.
One of these developments is the announcement of a new production service collaboration between specialists Radioaktive Film and Shelter.film in Georgia, to further strengthen their own longstanding positions within the market.
The collaboration, dubbed radioaktive X shelter., will see the two award-winning companies team up to combine their significant resources in Georgia, offering the scale, value and high levels of services that their clients have become accustomed to in Ukraine.

Whilst their primary aim will be to make Georgia a go-to commercials production destination, it will also play a crucial part in their venture to support their production crews back home in Ukraine.
Darko Skulsky, founder, Radioaktive Film, says: “Georgia was an easy selection as both of our companies have a track record of producing films with leading directors including Ian Pons Jewell, Daniel Wolfe and Keith McCarthy for brands such as Nike, Toyota and Squarespace. As a team we have great contacts and we are ready to grow the market together."
Albert Zurashvili, founder, Shelter.Film, comments: "Many of our teams have been displaced during the war on Ukraine, so we are trying to give them an additional, stable base in Tbilisi to produce out of. We will also allocate profits made in Georgia to our crew members that stayed in Ukraine, supporting the cause."
