Businesses and Residents of Worcestershire: Have you thought about working with filming and photography productions?
Worcestershire Film Office can make this process simple for you! You just might have that special something that productions are looking for! From commercials to fashion shoots, independent projects, and high-end TV & Film; filmmakers and photographers need a vast range of locations and suppliers.
Locations could be anything from a driveway, modest house or home office all the way up to bars, restaurants, corporate offices and shops.
Productions will often need catering, parking, break-out spaces and equipment (among other things) so if you provide facilities or services that could be of interest to film production companies, you can register your services, free of charge, on the Worcestershire Film Office website (powered by FAME Pro).
