The Location Managers Guild International is thril

The Location Managers Guild International is thrilled to announce a collaboration with the Egypt Film Commission and the Egyptian Media Production Center (EMPC), formalized by the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) during the 45th Annual Cairo International Film Festival.

As part of the festival, the LMGI was honored to present a thought-provoking panel on the evolving craft of location management, exploring its critical role in storytelling and production. This engaging session emphasized the global impact of our profession and showcased how diverse locations can elevate cinematic narratives.

This MOU not only celebrates the mutual commitment to elevating the art of location management but also paves the way for stronger international relationships. It highlights Egypt’s immense potential as a premier filmmaking destination, offering awe-inspiring ancient landmarks, vibrant urban landscapes, and state-of-the-art production facilities.

This collaboration represents a significant step in fostering worldwide connections, supporting the growth of the global film industry, and encouraging filmmakers to explore the rich cultural tapestry of Egypt as a canvas for their creative visions.

The LMGI is pleased to announce the recent signing

The LMGI is pleased to announce the recent signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Japanfilmlocations.com, focusing on the untapped filming potential of the Kyushu region.

Kyushu’s enchanting locations—from historic landmarks and serene natural landscapes to vibrant cities—offer a wealth of opportunities for filmmakers seeking fresh, dynamic settings. This agreement highlights the Guild’s dedication to building global partnerships and creating new avenues to assist with promoting the region’s unique cultural and geographical offerings.

The LMGI was also represented on a panel at the Global Stage Hollywood Film Festival, spotlighting Kyushu’s production advantages and its stunning array of locations and meeting with local government officials from the region.

We are excited to continue working with our partners to elevate Kyushu as a sought-after location for international productions and to strengthen the craft of location management worldwide.
