Directors, actors, production designers, editors, costume designers, writers, composers and more will be celebrated for their artistic vision, yet one of the greatest visionary roles in film — that of location scouts — will once again go unrecognized.

The Marketplace is a case in point, coming as the value of locations has grown to become a basic consideration in a highly competitive new content scene. “There’s an exponential increase of productions that has raised the need to set each story in a unique location which meets both producers and directors criteria,” Rosado added. Following, seven takeaways:

Part of Spain’s drive to consolidate as one of the world’s foremost big shoot locales, Shooting Locations Marketplace has confirmed dates for its second edition which will run over Oct. 20-21, taking place once again at the Feria de Valladolid, an hour’s train ride north of Madrid.
The Marketplace looks set to repeat its original format which welcomes first and foremost location scouts, as well as producers, line producers and representatives of film commissions in and outside Spain.
Revolving around one-to-one meetings, where commissions and service companies present potential shoot destinations to location managers, the Marketplace also features panels and presentations analysing industry trends as well as success stories and factors that tip the balance when picking one destination over another.
Representatives of 60 destinations are expected, including members of the Spain Film Commission, and countries such as Portugal and Norway, which will attend for the first time.
