Israel Vs. Hezbollah: Facing another violent round?


Two recent press reports by the London Times and Haaretz indicate that tension is rising in the Israeli-Lebanese border, which had been fairly quiet since the second Lebanon war (2006).

The Highlight Films production teams continue to follow the reports on the situation on Israel’s northern front. We provide all necessary camera crews and all production services for reporters, journalists and producers who would like to cover the area and the potential for another escalation.

Low altitude footage of Israel - soon available in our archive

Our production crews have been recently testing options for low-altitude aerial filming of various locations in Israel. We have used helicopters for aerial filming, but as helicopter shoots are both expensive and are often resricted as far as the lowest altitude permitted, we have been checking other options which may provide smooth movements, filming at various heights and easy approach to locations throughout Israel.
By August 18 we will upload several clips to the Highlight Films archive section, and we will be glad to get feedback from viewers. The clips will also be uploaded to YouTube as well.
Please check our news updates here on or after August 18.
