Locations
As the capital of Queensland’s sunshine state, Brisbane offers a diverse array of film-friendly locations and warmly welcomes television production to the region.
As the mighty Brisbane River meanders through the city’s skyscrapers, the urban villages of West End, Fortitude Valley and Paddington offer a quirky and unique look. Get close to nature within a few minutes of the central business district at the Kangaroo Point Cliffs or the lush rainforests and waterfalls of Mount Coot-tha. Further afield, Brisbane offers easy access to the scenic splendour of Moreton Bay and Islands, the Scenic Rim and Country Valleys.
Brisbane loves being on the big screen and has the ability to morph into whatever a Director wants it to be. From a Caribbean outpost in Fool’s Gold to a futuristic vampire run ghetto in Daybreakers, the diverse architecture in the city and surrounds offer film makers exceptional flexibility.
The Village Roadshow Studios – located just 45 minutes drive south of Brisbane – offer world-class facilities to film makers. Along with eight sound stages, the studios offer three water tanks, ten production offices, editing suites, wardrobe, makeup, construction, paint and carpentry shops.
