Filming Equipment in Mauritius, Seychelles & Maldives
Since 2009, Identical Media has been committed to filling the gap in film equipment across the Indian Ocean islands. Mauritius, Seychelles, and the Maldives offer breathtaking locations, and now, thanks to our investments, productions can access the same industry-standard equipment used in Hollywood and Europe without the need to fly in gear.
Our One-Stop Shop Philosophy
When we first began servicing productions in the region, much of the necessary equipment had to be imported at high cost. Over the years, we have built a comprehensive catalog that covers everything from cameras and lenses to video assist, lighting, and grip equipment. Today, we are proud to be the leading service provider and rental house in the Indian Ocean.
