Becoming a film location

Most location owners find hosting a film crew a fun, enjoyable experience ... if a little hectic. You may even be cast as an extra, have your first screen 'debut' and meet a celebrity ... or two!

Registration is easy and gives you a chance to earn income through location fees. Whilst there is no guarantee if you are not registered on the region’s locations database, it will be harder for location managers to find you. Registration is only £30 to cover the administration involved given shortfalls in government funding, but each location owner can register as many properties as they like - you only pay once.

Click here to complete the on-line form. You can either upload the pictures or copy the images onto a CD and send them to us with your payment. Please label the images so we know what is what. The description and the images you provide enable us promote your property to film-makers. We cannot promote locations without images.

If you would prefer to send a signed paper form, you can download the 'Location registration form' on the link below. Please complete the form and send it with your images on a CD and the payment.
