On Location
Malta's unit publicists manage on-set press, EPK coordination, and media relations for productions shooting on the island, working in fluent English with both international and Maltese outlets.
Here is how this works in practice. We place unit publicists who manage the press and publicity side of a shoots in Malta — setting up set visits, EPK and behind-the-scenes capture, stills, press releases, and media access. The local pool knows both the global entertainment press. The Maltese media landscape, built through decades of high-profile shoots on the island. English as an official language means press materials, interviews, and media liaison run without translation friction for visiting shoots. Day rates sit competitively against larger European markets.
Here is the short of it. For shoots with major publicity campaigns, our unit publicists work alongside studio and agency teams in the UK and beyond. We brief publicists on the production's press strategy and confidentiality needs early so on-set media is managed cleanly without disrupting the shoot.
Here is the breakdown. Unit publicity in Malta operates on an island with a genuine appetite for film. The Malta Film Awards and the Mediterrane Film Festival in Valletta give the local industry a public profile. High-profile shoots — from Gladiator and Game of Thrones to Napoleon and Gladiator II — create strong local and global interest a publicist can channel. The Malta Film Commission supports media planning as part of its one-stop-shop role.
Here is what that looks like on the ground. Malta is an EU member. GDPR, enforced by the Information and Data Protection Commissioner, governs how personal data in press and behind-the-scenes material is handled — something a unit publicist factors into media releases. The island's photogenic locations, from Valletta to Gozo, also make Malta itself a publicity asset for shoots shooting there.
