Location Management Expertise
What does a location manager do during production?
The location manager oversees all aspects of your filming locations—from arrival to wrap. This includes supervising crew on site, managing access and parking, coordinating with property owners, monitoring permit compliance, controlling noise and crowd issues, and ensuring the location is restored properly.
Do you handle permits and permissions?
Yes, our location managers coordinate all filming permits across Peruvian regions. We work with PromPerú for production support, MinCultura for archaeological sites, and municipal authorities for urban locations. Equipment customs clearance is also facilitated.
What about heritage sites and protected locations?
We specialize in managing complex locations including Machu Picchu, Cusco's historic centre, and Sacred Valley sites. Our managers handle MinCultura's advance permit applications and navigate the specific restrictions at each archaeological site — including Machu Picchu's equipment limitations.
How do you handle neighbor and community relations?
Our location managers proactively communicate with neighbors before filming, address concerns during production, and ensure positive relationships. This community approach protects your production and maintains good standing for future shoots.
Can you manage multiple locations simultaneously?
Yes, for productions with multiple locations, we provide location management teams coordinating across all sites. Our managers communicate to ensure consistent standards and seamless company moves between locations.
What are typical location fees?
Location fees in Peru vary by site and region. MinCultura archaeological permits have structured fees, while urban and rural locations negotiate individually. Our managers handle all negotiations in PEN and coordinate PromPerú support for international productions.
