About this ebook

Global Film Sets explores the pivotal role of film locations in cinematic storytelling, revealing how they shape narratives and influence audience perception. Beyond mere backdrops, these locations actively participate in the film-making process, contributing significantly to a film's overall success. For example, a nondescript suburban house can transform into an iconic setting, deeply impacting viewers.

The book traces the evolution of location shooting, from early studio-bound productions to today's globe-trotting epics, highlighting the economic and cultural impact of film tourism on local communities. It presents a unique approach by combining in-depth film analysis with insights into location scouting and management, appealing to film students, enthusiasts, and cultural tourists alike.

Drawing upon production notes, interviews, and original fieldwork, the book bridges film studies, geography, and cultural tourism. Beginning with an overview of key concepts, the book progresses through case studies ranging from historical reconstructions to contemporary settings and fantastical environments created through visual effects. It concludes by addressing ethical considerations surrounding location shooting, such as cultural appropriation and environmental impact, providing a comprehensive understanding of the multifaceted world of global film sets.
