When

1789 films was created in the late 1990s in order to help make it easy for international productions companies to come and film in France. Since then the company has gained a wealth of experience in handling film productions from all over the world. Even though 1789 is based in France the company is able to facilitate productions in Italy, Switzerland, Spain, Netherlands, Germany and Sweden.

Over the years 1789 has naturally expanded from working on commercial projects to also working on film and TV productions and further with stills photographers

So no matter what your project, no matter how big or how small, 1789 films is here to help you to realise and bring your production to finality.  We are able to help with everything that your production might need, from finding locations, helping with equipment and crews, casting etc... to tailoring your budgets.
 

Who

Xavier Legris has been the back bone of 1789 films ever since it was created in the 1990's and has managed the majority of the productions 1789 films has been involved in.

Xavier has been working within the film and tv industry since 1980 and in that time he has garnered a real depth of knowledge. After gaining valuable experience working in Paris and then overseas, he eventually settled in the South of France. It was here, that Xavier built his reputation, having worked on more than 80 TV Commercials, multiple film and television productions and over 30 stills productions. While working on these productions he gained experience in many different roles such as location finder, location manager, unit manager, production manager and line producer.

Xavier Legris is a safe pair of hands who will strive to help make your production work, on time and on budget.
