From elephants and big cats to monkeys, camels, zebras, flamingos and more, we help creative teams bring extraordinary concepts to life with professionally managed exotic animals across the United States.
Trusted by major brands, celebrities, production companies and some of the world’s most recognizable creators.
Tell us the animal, location, shoot date and creative concept.
As seen on projects with:
Sometimes the concept calls for something ordinary.
Sometimes it calls for an elephant walking into frame. A tiger beside your artist. Flamingos surrounding a fashion model. Or a monkey stealing a banana.
That’s where we come in.
Exotic Animals Events connects productions with extraordinary animals and the experienced professionals who care for and manage them.
Whether you’re planning a national commercial, music video, editorial shoot or a 30-second piece of social content, we’ll help determine what’s possible, what the animal needs, and how to design the shot efficiently around the production.
Don’t be shy… We’ve executed quite a few.
You’ve probably already seen our work can be basic white text… we really want people to notice:
…over 955 MILLION Views and counting…
Anyone who has worked on a professional set knows the difference between getting something there and getting it camera-ready, safely positioned and coordinated with production.
We communicate with your producer or creative team before arrival so everyone understands the concept, timing and requirements.
Animals arrive with the appropriate professional handlers responsible for their care and management.
Tell us what you’re trying to capture. We’ll help determine what’s realistic, how to structure the interaction & possibly add creative ideas and opportunities.
Studios, private properties, outdoor locations - all venues present different considerations.
The shot must work for the production and for the animal.
Our network allows us to help source extraordinary animals for productions throughout the United States and own the important details.
Have these details ready:
Have a treatment, storyboard or mood board?
Send it over.
There’s something unforgettable about bringing an extraordinary animal into the right creative concept. We love helping photographers, directors, producers, agencies, artists and brands turn ideas that seem impossible into images people remember.
Over the years, we’ve provided exotic animals for photo shoots, video shoots, film productions, commercials, music videos, television productions, advertising campaigns and fashion photography throughout the United States.
Whether you’re searching for a tiger for a photo shoot, an elephant for a commercial, a monkey for a music video, a lion for a film project, or even camels, zebras or flamingos for a fashion or editorial shoot, our team can help you explore what’s possible and coordinate the animals, professional handlers and logistics needed to bring the concept to life.
Our animals have appeared in commercial photography, advertising campaigns, television productions, film projects, music videos, fashion photography, branded content and social media productions ranging from intimate editorial shoots to major productions viewed by millions.
Every project starts differently. Sometimes a creative director comes to us with a complete storyboard and knows exactly what animal they need. Other times, we get a call that begins with:
“We have this crazy idea…”
Those might be our favorite calls.
If your next production needs something extraordinary, tell us what you’re imagining. We’ll help you figure out how to make it happen.
