Scouting locations for film and photography is about interpreting a briefing according to it’s intention.
Understanding and feeling the purpose of the message the client, creative and image maker want to bring across
and where and how to achieve this location wise. A location is a decisive factor in creating a story by means of images.
An important part of the work, is supplying the suitable locations by way of proper location photos
in a decent and efficient presentation for image makers, creatives and client.
Locationscout for (mainly commercial) photography and film from 1998 on.
From the old city center of Amsterdam The Netherlands and currently based in the Amsterdam area.
