Croatia!
LMGI members Harriet
Lawrence, Markus Bensch and
LMGI President John Rakich
were guest speakers at the
fourth edition of the Zagreb
Film Office's PROFilm Days
Conference that was held
in Zagreb on October 11. In
cooperation with the Croatian
Audiovisual Center, PROFilm's
first "in person" conference in
two years brought together a
number of foreign and domestic
experts to discuss issues
relevant to the audiovisual
industry.
The three weighed in on a
panel moderated by Croatian
LMGI member Tomislav Peleski
that tackled the hefty issue of
"Why Do We Choose Certain
Locations and Why Will We
Never Return to Some." John
Rakich participated on several
other equally compelling panels
during the conference.
Following the event, the location
professionals were treated to a
six-day Fam Tour across Croatia
to see the country's many
location filming opportunities
firsthand. In towns such
Varaždin, Rijeka and the Istrian
Peninsula, Zadar, Split and
Dubrovnik, they were introduced
to local location professionals,
vendors, leaders and politicians.
The LMGI thanks the Zagreb
Film Office and its partners for
their hospitality and generosity.
This was a wonderful
