Lisbon - Photo & Film Production
One of CheckTheGate's films was recently nominated for a FICTS Award (Federation Internationale Cinema Television Sportifs). 'Sport Movies and TV' is the worldwide final of the 14-stage international circuit 'World FICTS Challenge'.
The film 'Together We Shall Win' was commissioned by a subsidiary of the Angolan oil company Sonangol to be aired before CAN2010 (the African football championships). As the first TV commercial from young director Tiago Carvalho, the film was produced by CheckTheGate Portugal for advertising agency AFRO, based in Luanda and Porto.
CheckTheGate will soon open a branch in Oporto to take advantage of the city's wonderful locations and the company's excellent relationship with the local authorities.
