Since 1998, Highlight Films has provided camera crews for documentary films in Israel & Palestine. In addition, we offer a wide range of other production services to hundreds of American, Canadian, European and Asian documentary film and video productions. Some of our clients come to Israel and work side by side with our producers. Others send us their wish list, locations, interview questions and technical details. Then we follow their brief to the letter.
Our camera crews for documentary films in Israel & Palestine handle any video, stills or audio production. We work only with highly experienced professionals and well-kept gear. As a result, every production runs efficiently. We also own 4K and HD camera sets, prime lenses, grip and lights, and editing and post-production facilities. That is how we keep production costs competitive.
Israeli and Palestinian camera crews
All our documentary cameramen, sound engineers, ACs, grips and other crew members have deep experience in international documentary productions. We will always send you their reels in advance. Israelis and Palestinians work together at Highlight Films. We respect each other’s sensitivities, and we share the same goals. In addition, the border between Israel and the Palestinian areas is not always clear. Therefore, our Palestinian cameramen often film in Jerusalem and in other parts of Israel.
In many productions, visiting crews need to cross back and forth between Israeli and Palestinian territories. We know how to plan these crossings and which procedures to follow. As a result, every crossing stays quick, safe and efficient.
Here are some pointers and links for the camera services we provide:

Camera Crews for Documentary Films in Israel: Television Production Services
Highlight Films has more than 25 years of experience in television production in Israel, Palestine, Jordan and across the Middle East.

Documentary Film Footage
Our 4K and HD stock footage archive of Israel is unique in many ways. Most importantly, we shot much of it specifically for documentary films. In fact, some of the footage appears in our own films about key events and places in the recent history of Israel and Palestine. So, if your documentary, commercial or corporate video is shooting elsewhere and you need only a few minutes from Israel, we can find the best footage for you.
