1. MAKE SURE YOUR HOME IS CLEAN AND TIDY<\/h3>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n

It may seem obvious and trite, but it's probably the most important piece of advice we can give you.<\/p>\n

To ensure that the crew coming into your home can work comfortably and without too many hitches, it is essential that the location be clean and tidy. In productions\u2014especially those intended for commercial use (such as product shoots and commercials)\u2014it is common to close-ups and close-up shots<\/strong> on surfaces and glass to showcase the product to its best advantage, so make sure these areas are ready for use, polished, sparkling, and fragrant.<\/p>\n

In addition to the spaces that will be used for filming, the areas designated for equipment storage, any dressing rooms for makeup and hair, catering areas, and restrooms are also extremely important. If there are any personal or particularly fragile items in these areas, we recommend storing them in locked spaces that will not be used by the film crew.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \n \n\n <\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

2. PROVIDE ALL THE NECESSARY INFORMATION ABOUT THE VENUE<\/h3>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n

Every home has its own unique characteristics, both in terms of aesthetics and, above all, in terms of practicality.<\/p>\n

For speed up the setup process<\/strong> To avoid any hitches or issues, we usually ask that you provide us with all the technical and practical information to make the crew\u2019s job easier. For example, are there any strict condominium rules set in stone? Are there any faulty doors or windows that won\u2019t open? Are there any potential sources of noise nearby, such as construction work, barking dogs, train tracks, and so on? Are there any particularly delicate areas or furnishings? Are there any parts of the location that are strictly off-limits?<\/p>\n

Every piece of information is essential to avoid unpleasant surprises, both for the film crew and for you, the property owners. Please tell us everything<\/strong>, even the details that may seem most trivial to you\u2014please provide us with as much information as possible, even if it seems tedious, so that we can help you protect your venue as much as possible.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \n \n\n <\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

3. BE AVAILABLE IN CASE THE PRODUCTION TEAM NEEDS YOU<\/h3>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n

If you've provided us with all the necessary information, we'll rarely bother you during a production day, but as they say, better better safe than sorry<\/i>.<\/p>\n

It can happen that, during the day, questions or issues arise that only someone who knows the location well can resolve. Maybe the crew is ready, the location is set up, and we can\u2019t find any power outlets, or maybe the power goes out and we don\u2019t know where the meter is. During a shoot, it\u2019s A contact person is required<\/strong> who can assist with production in case of an emergency. We always recommend paying special attention, especially during the most critical moments\u2014such as setup and teardown\u2014in case the crew needs to move furniture or personal items, or needs to ask the owners for permission.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \n \n\n <\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

4. DO NOT INTERFERE WITH THE CREW'S WORK<\/h3>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n

Ask4 Location works exclusively with companies in the industry that organize large-scale productions<\/strong> and they are used to working in homes and inhabited locations. Shooting days are often hectic, and schedules are always tight. Therefore, it is essential that the crew be able to work without any disruptions or obstacles\u2014even unintentional ones.<\/p>\n

In particular, when recording live audio, there must be a complete silence<\/strong>: Make sure you've turned off your phone's ringer, and keep pets out of the way so they don't end up in the shots\u2014and make sure no neighbors ring the doorbell asking for some sugar for the cake they're about to bake.<\/p>\n

Another important recommendation concerns permission to take photos or videos of the set or the crew at work<\/strong>. We know that seeing your home transformed into a film set is a unique and fascinating experience for homeowners, but unfortunately, without specific permission, taking photos is often not allowed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \n \n\n <\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

5. AT THE END OF THE SHOOT, CHECK THAT EVERYTHING IS OK<\/h3>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n

After taking the last photo and announcing the last \u201ccut<\/i>\u201d, the crew will begin the dismantling<\/strong>: All production equipment and props will be removed from your home. It\u2019s possible that some furnishings, cables, or pieces of equipment might be left behind on set, or that the crew might have forgotten to put something back in its place.<\/p>\n

Once the photo shoot is over, we recommend taking a tour of your home together with the crew manager<\/strong> to check that everything is in its place and that the set has been completely dismantled.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \n \n\n <\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
