    Its projects went from pictures of an orangutan for British Airways with photographer Jenny van Sommers at Wyatt Clarke, to climbing the Rockies for Engelhorn Sports with photographer Frederik Clement.

    For Allianz insurance Contra helped Garry Simpson at Vue to defeat the Atlantic Ocean and enter the production halls of Airbus in Toulouse, while for the BMW i3 and i8 the company organised a photo shoot in Chicago with photographer Thomas von Salomon.

    Last but not least, Contra's Chinese baby - Contra Service Productions China - produced the 'Peoples Car' campaign for Volkswagen.

    Hong Kong [China]: Contra

    Hong Kong is a unique and diverse melting pot where traditional old markets and ultra-modern architecture sit side by side. It is a large, vibrant city with lush green countryside and good beaches nearby. Its sub-tropical climate makes it an all-year-round destination.

    Hong Kong has an excellent infrastructure to support all kinds of production, as well as excellent communications. It has one of the world's largest seaports and one of the most modern inter-continental airports.

    With reasonable production expenses, Hong Kong is a popular location for photographic and film production, and is frequently used by Hollywood studios for major motion picture productions.

    Contra Service Productions has a network of local production personnel in Hong Kong with the necessary bi-lingual English-Cantonese key crew on all productions. This year, so far they have completed productions in Hong Kong for Ansons, Mild Seven and UBS.
