There are many amazing and iconic locations among the city's beaches, architectural wonders and blue mountains. One local favourite is the intersection of Marrickville and Victoria Roads which is rich in visual appeal. For a more historic look, consider Bare Island or the harbour neighbourhood near Nielsen Park. The park’s nearby green lawns and surrounding historic mansions are also great for filming. Other natural landmarks such as Bondi Beach and The Rocks are popular for seaside shoots. For an urban industrial vibe, consider the White Bay Power Station and the surrounding area. Also check out the cafes, multicultural restaurants and cocktail bars of Darlinghurst for locations filled with energy and striking perspective.

It is important to plan how many people and equipment you will bring with you. Especially if you are filming in organic locations such as restaurants where equipment hire isn’t possible. A good filming location should have friendly, helpful staff, a good location and (if it is a studio) access to a wide range of professional equipment. Remember to check if your venue provides other necessary facilities.
