Productions are constantly looking for real filming locations – and soon you’ll be able to offer your apartment directly via SetScout. Find out how the platform works, what opportunities it offers, and what you should keep in mind when getting your home ready for filming.
Filmproduktionen suchen täglich neue Locations - echte Wohnungen, Häuser und Räume mit Charakter. Mit SetScout entsteht gerade eine Plattform, die diesen Prozess endlich einfacher, transparenter und digitaler macht.
Instead of having to fight their way through contacts, scouts, or agencies, landlords will soon be able to present their locations directly via SetScout – clearly, securely, and on fair terms. This will make it easier to get noticed, without needing to have film industry contacts yourself.
Traditionelles Location-Scouting ist oft kompliziert: unübersichtliche Datenbanken, teure Scout-Gebühren und viel Hin und Her per E-Mail oder Telefon. SetScout will das ändern - mit einem offenen Location-Index für Filmschaffende.
The goal:
The platform is still being built, but you can already get informed, prepare, and get your location ready for filming.
If you want to offer your spaces in the future, you can already prepare a few things now:
The prices depend on the location, size, and type of production. Here is a realistic overview from within the industry:
Location typeTypical day rate*
Small apartment, simple furnishings
150–400 €
Stylish or larger apartment
€400–800
House, garden, outdoor area
800–1500 €+
*Reference values based on past experience – commercials usually pay more than indie films.
When SetScout launches, these price ranges will provide guidance – so providers know from the start what is fair.
Even if you are (not yet) renting out via SetScout, it’s worth knowing these points:
Many people underestimate how valuable “real” spaces are. Productions are looking for authenticity: period apartments, lofts, gardens, rooftop terraces, workshops – every detail can be the perfect film location.
With SetScout, you will be able to list these spaces yourself in the future,easily enter them on your own, and make them visible to film professionals – without any intermediaries.
Filming locations are in higher demand than ever – and soon you’ll be able to get involved directly via SetScout. The platform is being developed as an open location index that brings property owners and film professionals together – transparent, fair, and digital.
