With such a big crew, it’s essential that we have a local producer we can rely on – who speaks the language, has a big network in the country, is flexible and ready for us 24/7. Rodney has all these qualities. Professional, trustworthy and loyal – we have not had a local producer as gifted over the 12 years that IDTV has produced this programme! Rodney is a person which we, as IDTV, would certainly recommend. When we first came to South Africa, Rodney brought us into contact with the right people and understood our wishes regarding locations we wanted to scout, arrangements with local companies and informing us about the rules with regard to film permits, licenses, clearance of cargo etc. We cannot express thanks enough for the role he played. It was a pleasure for us to work with him and he really became part of our team.
