Unit Publicists
Pro unit publicists creating compelling publicity content for your Turkish \t\t\t\t\t\tproduction.
Here is how this works in practice. A unit publicist manages the press and publicity activities associated with a film production, creating press materials, setting up set visits, and creating media coverage during production. In Turkey, publicists handle the local Turkish media landscape, building relationships with entertainment journalists and crafting narratives that resonate with both Eurasian and global audiences.
Here is the short of it. Through NeedAFixer, we connect you with Turkish unit publicists who know how to create meaningful media attention for shoots of each scale. Our network has pros in Istanbul and Ankara, Cappadocia, Antalya, and Bodrum, skilled in managing press campaigns for features, series, and branded content shooting across Turkey.

On Location
Turkish unit publicists manage on-set press and publicity for productions, working in a media landscape attuned to the global reach of Turkish drama.
Here is what that looks like on the ground. We supply unit publicists who manage the publicity and press side of a production in Turkey, setting up set visits, stills photography, behind-the-scenes content, interviews and the controlled flow of info during a shoot. Our team places publicists who liaise between the production, distributors and the media, manage press access without disrupting the floor, and protect a project's messaging through to release. Because Turkish shoots often draw local and global interest, the unit publicists we engage know both the domestic press environment and the wider audiences that follow Turkish content, working in Turkish lira within schedules shaped by the up-to-30% cash rebates.
Here is how the picture comes together. Turkey's media environment is well suited to unit publicity because the 'dizi' industry — the country is the world's second-largest exporter of television series after the United States — has built a press culture deeply engaged with screen production and a star system whose performers carry vast followings across the Middle East, the Balkans and Latin America. Festivals such as the Antalya Golden Orange, running since 1963, and the Istanbul Film Festival give shoots natural publicity sites. Unit publicists working in the country know how to manage coverage for both domestic and global release. The favourable Turkish lira keeps a full publicity operation cost-competitive for visiting shoots.
