LMGI COMPASS
|
Spring 2023
In November of 2022, LMGI business partner
Production Service Network (PSN) hosted
half a dozen filmmakers for a tour of Portugal,
introducing them to the many potential filming
opportunities in this southwestern European
country. From Lisbon to the island of Madeira,
guests were awed by the breadth of stunning sites
and captivated by the people and their culture.
"Lisbon was quite a nice
surprise," enthuses LMGI
German location professional
Sabine Schulmeyer/LMGI.
"It's very cinematographic.
Very different and very
unique at the same time.
It wasn't on the radar that
much, so it was good to
come and have a look."
Schulmeyer, along with
LMGI location managers
Harriet Lawrence from the
UK, Klaus Darrelmann from
Germany and Canadian John
Rakich (President) spent the
first few days exploring the
capital city and surrounding
areas.
"I hadn't realized how close
all sorts of other exciting bits
were to Lisbon," commented
Lawrence after the group
was shown the wonders of
Belém, Alfama, Sintra, Quinta
da Regaleira, Monserrate
Palace, Azenhas do Mar,
Guincho, Cascais, Marvila,
Parque das Nações and
Portinho da Arrábida.
