The Malta Film Commission is a Government entity responsible for assisting the production of films and projects in Malta, which consists of an advisory board pertaining to the promotion, development and support of the audiovisual and film servicing industry. With an experienced background of 90 years, the Malta Film Commission has supported large-scale productions such as By the Sea (2014), Captain Phillips (2013), World War Z (2013), The Da Vinci Code (2006) and Gladiator (2000). Unique, adaptable landscape and architecture makes Malta an ideal location for productions looking to double as other countries such as Italy, Afghanistan, Morocco, Israel and many more. Productions that choose Malta as its filming destination can receive financial incentives of up to 40% cash rebate.
Malta’s Film Studios boasts unique water tank facilities which are amongst the largest in the world, and one of the very few to operate with a natural sea horizon as a backdrop. In its 50+ years of operation they have been used for a variety of production purposes including water SFX, scale-model making, boat building and general set construction, serving over 200 productions from feature films to music videos and photo-shoots.
