For Catalogs & Commercials Along the 200 mile dune-lined, plantation-rich
South Carolina Coast So Many Looks. So little time to see them all on your first visit!

Introducing Personalized Movie Location Tours
For The Notebook, Forrest Gump, North & South, Prince of Tides, and more
For you, your family, small groups, conventions, weekends, and week days.

Featuring Charleston Film Locations – The brilliantly preserved modern city of European, Early American, Antebellum, Victorian, Renaissance Revival & every period of American architecture - closely surrounded by easily accessible oak-alleyed plantations, pristine white-duned beaches, primitively stunning cypress & tupelo swamps, and marsh-lined rivers fronted with rows of old homes with grassy yards & piers reminiscent of Cape Cod. As we will demonstrate on The Charleston Region page, we are more than the beautiful classic homes & public buildings, cobblestone streets, & moss-laden majestic oaks you have imagined Charleston to be. Charleston is where several climatological and foliage zones collide – giving the region a unique temperate, old south, & subtropical look – all within easy walking or driving distance from your lodging every day.

In The Charleston Region, you can be virtually anywhere any season most of the year. At its center the city of Charleston and its international airport are bordered by 2000 square miles of the broadest topographical scope of landscape, foliage, and architecture in America – bar none. We can look like Africa, any American era, the Caribbean, or SE Asia - which is why The Notebook, The Patriot, Cold Mountain, all 3 North & South’s, Scarlett, Queen, Prince of Tides, Bagger Vance, Ace Ventura When Nature Calls, Jackal, Die Hard With A Vengeance, Major League III, White Squall, Paradise, Swamp Thing, and Separate But Equal were totally or partially filmed in Charleston. In Beaufort (60 miles south) all of The Big Chill, most of Forrest Gump and Something To Talk About, and large portions of The Jungle Book and GI Jane filmed.

LOCATION SCOUTING AND MANAGEMENT
Our Charleston Location Scouts & Photo Producers provide Scouting & Management for Charleston and Beaufort Film Locations and the Carolina Coast. While there is no official Charleston Film Office we network with other Charleston Photo Producers, film offices & permit offices on the Carolina Coast as well as the South Carolina Film Office with whom we have worked for 25 years.
