Variety of projects requires a broad spectrum of locations, be it the interior or exterior of a modern family house or a gothic castle, a busy square or a romantic quiet forest place, possibly a posh restaurant, a theatre hall or a football stadium.

Any apartment, mansion, cottage, office or restaurant may be a suitable location. It may be a building with unique architecture or a place typical for ordinary life. Even properties that are empty or in worse condition may be suitable.

Several criteria are taken into consideration while choosing the location for a specific project. Spacious properties are preferred because the technical exigency of shooting and because the crews are usually numerous. Since Prague is the home position for most projects, locations within 60 km of the capital city are preferred. However, distance does not matter when it comes to stylish and unique places.

In order to offer your property (location) for shooting or photographing, we have to have the so-called photographs. These photographs are presented to the project creators, of course without the particular location and contact data. These photographs thus serve to provide a basic visual idea about the location offered.
To speed up listing your property in our database, we would like to ask you as the owners of the property to make the database photographs. We do not expect that your photographs will be professional in quality, but they still have to good. Our experience tells us that the photographs may have a certain influence on the choice of the location.
How to make the location photographs:
- Photograph in daylight without a flashlight. If necessary, use the light sources in the interior (lamps, lustres etc.).
- Use tripod for more sharp pictures
- The ideal resolution of the photographs is 1024x748 pix (it may be larger if you have sufficient internet connection)
- Photograph with as much spacing as possible, ideally the diagonal views from the corners of the rooms (see the drawing)
- Keep the logical sequence of the photographs within the whole property as well as the individual rooms
- Keep in mind that the pictures have to be as descriptive as possible because people who will watch them have never been there.
What to photograph
Due to the variety of the projects, any space in the interior and in the outdoor may be interesting. To help you making an ideal tour of the object, try to imagine that a good acquaintance of yours has come to visit you. You want to show off with your property and show him the uncommon sights, for example the old cellar or the attic (often a much sought-after shooting place). Ideally (for example in a family house) make the photographs of exterior view from the street, garden, entrance hall/foyer, living room, kitchen, bedroom, children’s room, balcony, other rooms, bathroom, stairway, garage, workshop etc.
