Built Around Shoot Schedules
Production Transport Built Around Your Shoot Schedule
Production days rarely run like standard travel itineraries. Call times move, locations change, talent requirements shift and shoot schedules can overrun.
MCR EXEC helps production teams plan pre-booked chauffeur transport with clear journey details, suitable vehicles and a professional transport structure from the start.
Our service can support hotel collections, airport arrivals, Media City movements, crew transfers, location scout travel, director transport and discreet talent journeys.
Recent Production Work
Production Transport In Practice: Three Different Briefs
The producers booked directly with MCR EXEC for each of these jobs. Each brief called for Mercedes V-Classes, but the role of the vehicles differed, from supporting a moving filming sequence to appearing in an advert or keeping a coastal crew moving between locations.
Boxing Promotional Production
DAZN: Cheshire And Birmingham
One customised Mercedes V-Class supported each of two boxing promotional shoot days. The Cheshire day began with a Manchester collection and continued around Mobberley; the Birmingham booking ran from late afternoon until midnight.
Alongside crew transport and standby, the chauffeurs advised on quieter scenic routes and stopping points for a moving filming sequence, helped load and unload equipment, and looked after equipment left onboard between locations.

Advertising Production
Booking.com: Manchester
Two Mercedes V-Classes covered airport transfers and a ten-hour production day for approximately eight production personnel. The shoot began at Booking.com’s Manchester headquarters before moving to Ancoats and Castlefield.
One V-Class was used in the advert itself, with cameras fitted inside and a chauffeur repeating driving sequences and vehicle positions to suit the director’s shots. The second vehicle supported crew movement. The booking also included the team’s arrival and departure transfers at Manchester Airport.
Tourism And Destination Production
Tripadvisor: The North West Coast
Two Mercedes V-Classes remained on standby for twelve hours on each of two shoot days. Day one covered Blackpool and Lytham St Annes, with separate collections for the crew and featured participants. Day two took the team to Southport, Formby and Crosby.
The filming focused on the destinations. MCR EXEC’s role was to move the team between locations, store equipment onboard and remain available while filming took place. The vehicles provided transport support rather than appearing in the campaign.
