Location Scouting In Depth

location Scouting

Our sister company Location Works, boasts the most comprehensive location library in Europe and although our libraries are growing fast, there will always be locations needed by our clients that it does not contain.

If it's not in the library, Location X will go out and find it. We'll get location shots to you on CD/DVD, or post them to a ‘private collection’ web page for you (and whoever you choose) to view.

Each location scouting job is a new and different challenge so there is considerable advantage to pooling knowledge of experienced scouts. Our library, and that of our sister company Location Works are usually the best starting point for any search. In addition to our location shots, we've accumulated a formidable resource of reference books, contact lists and associate location companies across Europe, US, Africa and the Far East.

There’s no such thing as a typical job! Here's a sample of recent assignments:

* Derelict industrial complex for Land Rover.

* Controllable City of London street for Aegean Airlines.
* Hospitals for The Bourne Ultimatum.
