Balen is an industrial municipality in a green setting, and both halves matter. Zinc has been worked here since Vieille Montagne came to the Nete valley in 1889, the plant is one of the largest zinc smelters in Europe, and Kempen quartz sand is still dug along the canal; around them lie some sixty-five hectares of SME and industrial zones. Out at Keiheuvel, gliders climb over the heath. Companies here almost never have a place to record, so our crew brings cameras, sound and lighting to your plant, office or workshop in Balen and films your video podcast, webinar or talking-head video where the work happens. Our Brussels-region studio is the alternative. Sessions start at €99.

Where we film in Balen

We film in the industrial and SME zones along the Dessel-Kwaadmechelen canal, where the metals plant and the sand-extraction sites are, and in the smaller craft zones spread across the municipality. We also shoot in Balen-Dorp around the Sint-Andrieskerk and the old town hall, in the village cores of Hulsen, Rosselaar, Wezel, Gerheide and Schoorheide, in Olmen, and at Keiheuvel with its recreation area and gliding field.

Built for Balen’s teams

Balen runs on metals and minerals — zinc processing on the historic Vieille Montagne site, quartz-sand extraction along the canal, and the technical suppliers, hauliers and installers that grew up around them — plus construction firms, family SMEs, the farms of Olmen, schools, sports clubs and care providers. Industrial employers need recruitment film, safety and process video, and recorded management interviews. That is a camera job on their own floor, not in a studio.

FAQ

Filming in Balen — your questions

Do you film on location in Balen?

Yes — the crew comes to you. We arrive at your plant, office or workshop in Balen with cameras, sound and lighting, build the set around your space, and record your podcast, webinar or interview there. If you would rather have a controlled background, our Brussels-region studio is available.

Can you film inside an industrial site with safety rules?

We are used to it. Send us your site rules and PPE requirements in advance; we plan the shoot around the process and the shift pattern, mic people close so the plant noise does not swallow them, and light the space rather than fight it. Delivery timing is agreed with you before the shoot day.

Could you film at Keiheuvel or outdoors?

Yes. The Keiheuvel recreation area and its gliding field, the canal banks and the Scheps nature area give Balen a look no studio can reproduce. We can combine an indoor interview with outdoor footage in a single shoot day, with the edit schedule agreed up front.

How does pricing work?

Every session starts at €99. You build the rest in the booking — crew, editing, social clips, livestream, on-location — and the price updates live. All prices excl. VAT; we confirm the quote before anything is charged.

What do I leave with?

It depends on the package. A turnkey podcast includes the edited 16:9 video, the audio file and 5 vertical clips for social. We agree the delivery timeline with you when we plan the shoot.

Do I own the footage and files?

Yes, outright. Raw footage is available on request.
