Titan

Make a returnable factual series about global logistics that a broadcaster would run on merit — not a corporate film with a logo on the end. That meant a format with genuine narrative stakes, access to operations that are normally closed, and a delivery standard indistinguishable from commissioned blue-chip factual.

The constraint most producers fail on: the story lives inside a working terminal on a live vessel call. There is no second take, and the schedule belongs to the ship.

We built the season around four self-contained hours, each carrying a different pillar of the business, so the series works as a run and each episode stands alone for a broadcaster sampling it.

The pilot, Titans of Tangier, is a workforce story. Rather than open on hardware, it opens on the people who run one of the fastest transshipment terminals in the Mediterranean — which is what makes the scale legible when the hardware does arrive.

Interviews are conducted in Arabic and delivered subtitled. That was a deliberate editorial choice, not a logistical concession: the workforce tells the story in its own language, which is precisely what separates this from a corporate video.

Live terminal operations, vessel call

• EP 01Titans of TangierThe pilot. The workforce running MedPort Tangier, built around a live call of the Antonia Maersk.
• EP 02Future FuelMethanol and fuel-agnostic vessels — the engineering bet on what powers the next fleet.
• EP 03The NetworkOperational resilience: what happens to a global network when one link fails.
• EP 04The Cold ChainThe finale, told as a single journey — pharmaceuticals as the hero cargo.

The pilot was built around the Antonia Maersk vessel call at MedPort Tangier. Rather than run a separate recce trip, we folded the pre-shoot recce into the first production days — a small-unit advantage that removed a full travel cycle from the budget and put the crew on the ground while the terminal was live.

Production ran on a five-to-six person footprint under filming authorisation coordinated across Maersk corporate communications, terminal operations and APM Terminals.

Pilot produced and delivered. The season is in development toward full production.

Titan is the template we now take to every industrial, energy and infrastructure client: a brand pays for a series that stands on its own editorially, gets made to broadcast specification, and reaches an audience through a distributor rather than a media buy.
