Using your home as a shoot location can be a great way to generate some extra income, and there’s no fees to join.
To register your interest in being part of the red locations portfolio, first we need to see photographs of the space. You’ll need to include a selection of both interiors and exteriors so that we can accurately assess the location for our clients.
It’s important to send us wide shots of the rooms and spaces. Detailed photos of decor can make attractive images, but they do not show us what we need to judge the potential of the property.
Smartphone images are absolutely fine at this stage. We will re-shoot images as required.
Our database contains a wide variety of homes from the architectural to the everyday, but we’re always looking for more!
Offering your home as a shoot location can be rewarding in many ways, but you must be aware of the risks before venturing down this road.
Clients are always respectful of shoot locations, but no matter how organised a production team might be, accidents can happen.
Clients have insurance to cover them against any larger losses, but the majority of issues tend to be minor and are of course covered by the hirer.
red locations is a new agency, but we are not new to the industry. With over 20 years of location management experience, you are in very safe hands.
If we get an enquiry for your home we’ll make contact to check if it’s available, provide all the details and of course, discuss how much you will be paid. A day hire can be upwards from around $1,000 depending on the nature of the enquiry and size of the crew.
As your agent, we guide you through the process, and answer any questions or concerns you might have. We arrange the initial site visit or “recce” and if the client then wants to go ahead, we take care of the negotiations and paperwork to ensure you and your property have the appropriate protection, then hand the client over to you for the shoot. We also manage the invoicing – we are a full service location agency.
If you want to go ahead, fill out the form below, upload some photos, and we’ll be in touch! If you have any questions, check our FAQ or send us an email.
