Producing : Location Scouting by Lauren McKean

Location Scouting

It's been awhile since I've been on here but wasn't there a location scouting option on here where venues, rentals, etc could list places to rent for shoots? Has that service been discontinued and if so how do you normally find locations in your area?

If there is, or was, I don't know of it. Might be a good idea.

Hey, Lauren McKean! Start with your state film commission. Some cities have their own film commission as well. There are a few other sites that are like AirBnB for creatives. Peerspace was the go-to for a while, but Giggster is the new kid on the block. Don't underestimate the power of friend's places, though!

What are you looking for?

Lauren - you're in Portland, what are you looking for and how far away are you looking?

We did the shoot already, found an incredible location, but I appreciate everyone's feedback! That program must have been discontinued but I'd love to see it come back.
