Location Scouting
Location scouting is the process of identifying and evaluating the best locations for film, photo, and video productions.
It involves finding visually compelling sites while ensuring they meet logistical and technical needs.
Our service includes capturing detailed visual references through photos, video, drone, and 360° footage.
If needed, we also engage with local talent or property owners to facilitate on-site interviews and access.
Beyond visuals, we assess factors like accessibility, lighting conditions, noise levels, and required permits—ensuring a smooth production process from start to finish.
Whether you need quick previews or a comprehensive site analysis, we provide the insights to bring your project to life efficiently.
