An island of sharp and extreme geological contrasts. A place where fire and ice co-exist. Where dark winters are offset by summer’s midnight sun. A country where insular existence has spurred a rich and vibrant culture. Home to some of the largest glaciers in Europe and some of the world’s most active volcanoes. In other words, it is a geological masterpiece, a peerless volcanic land of dramatic skies, bubbling earth, thundering waterfalls, and thermal lagoons. A large number of international films have been shot in Iceland, like Interstellar, Rogue One, Secret Life of Walter Mitty, Prometheus, Game of Thrones, Batman Begins, 007, and many more. The modern infrastructure collective with very short distances between widely diverse geological areas makes Iceland an ideal destination for film- and photoproductions.
This is our backyard and our go-to choose when it comes to finding authentic Nordic locations where nature creates art. Breathtaking locations are dominated by either light or darkness, where the sea meets mountains and where melting snow gives way to delicate blossom. Norway has a unique combination of high-level technology, a very good infrastructure, and spectacular nature. The coastline extends across 14 degrees of latitude and measures 1.752 kilometers from north to south. This means the country has a variation in landscape, vegetation, and climate seldom found elsewhere. The working environment regulations for the film industry permit long workdays for shooting, which means tighter and more efficient production schedules. Distances from inner city areas to unpopulated wilderness are short, meaning you will save valuable time when changing locations during production.
We have destinated location managers and producers on each and one of our main locations.
We believe every detail counts, therefore we provide photos in high resolution for each location. In most cases also video and mood of the location. We try to take photos during the specific time of the day/night our clients planning their production. We also deliver alternative angles and ideas we think could be of interest. A vital part of the storyboarding process.
Sun, rain, wind, snow, heat, cold, moisture from waterfalls, salty beaches, — all can help or hurt. We are always up to date with the local forecast. We also use sun-apps and geo-tags so we have all info about sunrise, sunset, daylight and shadows. Taking up natural sound is often critical when it comes to filmmaking. We give our clients sound-reports of the location.
To be flexible and able to keep gears protected from weather conditions we provide motorhomes on each location. We also always verify that the locations are physically accessible at the time for production. Many locations are far from power and we help our clients to evaluate power options. Of course we also offer rental and transportation of any camera gears needed for the production.
As an extra service for our clients, we offer to help out with transportation for the full trip, including flights, pickup, and whatever it takes to get our clients from one point to another. Anything to make it as smooth as possible. Depending on location, we offer several transportation options on set, like motorhome, seaplane, snowmobile, dog sledding, and 4×4: s.
Productions can often be a disaster when it comes to eating healthy. It’s important to have a steady intake of healthy snacks, vitamins, and water to keep your energy level on fleek and be able to keep on going for a full day. When selecting catering from us, our movie location scouts. offer you a locally produced menu of fresh salads, fish, fruits, nuts, and bakery with no additional sugar.
We are connected with guides and locals with unique knowledge and expertise. Thanks to their hospitality, we got to know our selected areas better than anyone else and can provide hidden gems and authenticity. We also have various collaborations with travel agencies, rental companies, catering, and lodging so that we can offer our clients discounted prices.
