Finding film shoot locations is easy if you know the right tools to use. Start with Peerspace by searching for local film shoot locations near you. Also make sure to learn everything you need to know about location scouting. You can even learn a bit about how to become a location scout yourself, which should give you some insight into the tools professional location scouts use in addition to Peerspace for finding the perfect film shoot locations. Many local film commissions also keep directories of locations that can be used for filming. Location scouting is one of the most important parts of film pre-production, and finding just the right settings for your scenes can separate amateur productions from masterpieces.
The first step to finding film shoot equipment rental services should be to search right here on Peerspace. Additionally, many of your local film shoot locations may offer access to on-site equipment as part of using the location. If you still can't find film shoot equipment rentals that meet your needs, use your search engine of choice and check local business listings. Many of the film equipment rentals on our listings will even ship their equipment so you can get what you need wherever you're filming.
Focus on the "5 Ws"—the Who, What, When, Why, and Where. For each day of the shoot, lock down your shooting locations, list which crew and actors are required, and account for what equipment and props are needed. Then record what scenes you'll be filming, as well when shooting should start and end. Being diligent in pre-production and planning can be the difference between a production that's a disaster or one that produces a masterpiece.
How long it takes to shoot a film depends on the type of film, as well as where you're shooting it. Planning ahead of time is critical for keeping the shoot efficient, so use a shooting schedule template, budget template, and then lock down your best local shooting locations. A short film may take a few days up to a week or two. On average, Hollywood studio films tend to take 3-4 months to shoot.
