On June 1, the World of Looks
photography competition, featuring
the work of British Columbia location
scouts, opened at Western Canada's
largest photographic gallery—The
Polygon.
There was a beautiful energy in the
sold-out room dedicated to the craft
of location scouting and its creative
impact on filmmaking in "Hollywood
North." The scouting process sets
the stage for every show, and it is the
most significant influence a Location
Department has upon the screen.
"Browsing the stunning photographs in the gallery made me
appreciate that location scouts are a critical part of the creative
team. It is not just about photographing a location to capture the
landscape. It is also about showing the director what is possible and
how it aligns with their vision."
