Location scouting

KEYS OF A SUCCESSFUL LOCATION SCOUTING

We start from your needs to realize your dreams. Our expertise in the marine environment and our extensive experience in underwater filming have led us to conceive the location in several stages.

1. Define your needs

  • The depth of the site, the type of bottom, clear water or not
  • What kind of surface landscape (rocky, vegetal, urban…)?
  • What type of underwater landscape (rocky, sandy…)?
  • What atmosphere, what light?
  • The size of the site and its capacity for the boat(s)
  • A sheltered site according to the prevailing winds for the chosen period of the year
  • An authorization to access the site
  • A video feedback
  • An understudy or training for the actor(s)

2. Spotting

  • Choice of a site and a suitable withdrawal area

  • Setting up of means (boat, pilot, divers)

  • Simulation with a double

  • Photo and/or video production according to your storyboard
