What makes a good location and a good location photo?

This is a tough question because productions can be looking for almost anything. One aspect that is just about universal is easy access. Most productions come with trucks – lots of trucks, even stills shoots. Taking photos of the access point(s) to your property will be important.

Most properties come with some restrictions – from being under a flight path or next to a highway, or simply being unavailable at certain times. Whilst noise restrictions will affect your property’s ability to host a production where location sound is important, it may not be relevant to a stills shoot or a music video. Please note any restrictions in the form.

You must also be the owner of the property (or have sufficient rights to the property) with the authority to permit a production to access that property. If the production is put at risk because you cannot grant access to the property after signing a location agreement, you may be liable for costs and damages (big film crews can cost hundreds of thousands per day).

Location shots should showcase your property’s unique points, but:

• remember to include wide shots, shots of your property in relation to the surrounding area and include both interior and exterior shots
• please use landscape NOT portrait
• consider the time of day and the suitability of the weather – and also remember that these photos are published on a public website
• please take your property’s security into account in deciding what to photograph.
