Production
Budgets, schedules, call sheets, suppliers and calm coordination from the first brief to the last shot.
Production
Fashion production · Sri Lanka
Your campaign.
Made in Sri Lanka.
TMA is the on-island production partner for international fashion, beauty and lifestyle brands. We bring together the models, places, people and practical detail behind a great campaign, whether your team travels or only your collection does.
The island
One island.
Many visual worlds.
A dawn on the coast can become an afternoon among tropical modernist lines. Layered city streets, contemporary architecture, tea fields under cloud, old walls full of texture and ocean light: the palette changes within a few hours on the road.
That range makes Sri Lanka especially strong for Spring/Summer and Resort stories. We never choose a location for novelty alone. We scout for the collection, the light, the movement of the day and the reality of making the frame.
What we handle
One brief. One island team.
02
Models & casting
We book the right model from our board for your project, or run a casting to find the faces your campaign needs. Usage is cleared for the markets and duration you need.
03
Locations & permits
Scouting shaped around the collection, from coastline and tropical modernism to city streets, heritage architecture and tea country, with permissions coordinated.
04
Photography & film
A network of photographers, directors and filmmakers specialising in fashion, lifestyle, advertising and commercial productions.
05
Styling & beauty
Fashion stylists, hair stylists and make-up artists selected to complement the creative vision and aesthetic of each production.
06
Travel & hospitality
Airport welcomes, ground transport, hotel and villa recommendations, booking support, catering and practical care for the travelling team.
Two ways to produce
Come to the island.
Or send the campaign.
On location
We receive your team
From airport arrival to the last day on set, we coordinate the local production around your creative team, with the right amount of support at every step.
Remote production
We receive your product
Send the collection with a confirmed shipping plan. We handle the production locally while you approve the key decisions and follow the set from Australia, the Gulf, Europe or the United States.
How it works
From first brief to final image.
01
Share your brief
Tell us about the collection, the images you need, your dates and your budget. A moodboard is enough to begin.
02
Receive the plan
We come back with locations, casting, crew, logistics and a production plan built around your campaign.
03
Shoot in Sri Lanka
Join us on the island, send part of your team, or ship the collection and follow the shoot remotely.
04
Delivery & handover
Your images are delivered, your products travel home and every supplier is settled, with a clear handover at the end.
Questions
Before we begin.
Does our team need to travel to Sri Lanka?
No. TMA can produce with your team on the island, with a smaller travelling team, or as a remote production. For a remote shoot, your brand approves casting, locations and key creative decisions before shoot day and can follow the set live from abroad.
Can TMA receive our collection or products?
Yes. TMA coordinates the shipping plan, local receipt and the appropriate customs route with experienced partners. Requirements, duties and timing depend on the goods, their value and whether they will leave Sri Lanka again.
Can you arrange locations, photographers, crew and accommodation?
Yes. TMA assembles the production around your brief, including scouting, permissions, photographers, still and motion crew, styling, hair and make-up, equipment, transport, hotels or villas and catering.
What kind of campaigns can you produce?
TMA produces fashion, resortwear, swim, beauty, jewellery, accessories, lifestyle and hospitality campaigns, from a focused stills day to a combined photo and motion production.
How early should we get in touch for Spring/Summer 2027?
As early as possible, even before the creative is final. Location access, production approvals, specialist crew, model holds and temporary imports can all affect the schedule. An early brief gives TMA room to build the strongest route and a useful weather backup.

A call together
We book a Google Meet at a time that suits your timezone and walk through the brief, the dates and how you would like to work, on the island or remotely.
Your production, shaped
We come back with the locations, casting, crew and logistics that fit, so the support is built around your campaign from the first conversation.
