By Tom Forbes<\/p>\n

He is not a super hero, but film location scout Duncan Jones has the power to shut down city streets so Hollywood superstars can shoot their blockbuster movies.<\/p>\n

In 2016, the Gold Coast-based location manager orchestrated the closure of part of Brisbane’s CBD for Thor: Ragnarok<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The 44-year-old started as a dolphin trainer before moving into the film industry as a location scout 16 years ago.<\/p>\n

\n

“I used to work at Sea World and worked on Flipper for many years when they were filming that at Sea World, and through that I got to know locations managers and thought that was the way to go,” he added.<\/p>\n

His job is to help facilitate film makers and deal with councils, property owners and community groups.<\/p>\n

“Whoever it is that wants to make a film comes to me with a script,” he said. “We then break it down from a locations prospective and then it’s a matter of going out and finding options that will fit that script’s needs.”<\/p>\n

Mr Jones said he had developed strong working relationships with councils, but there were a few tense moments during filming of the $160 million Aquaman move in June this year.<\/p>\n

The filmmakers were granted approval to construct a temporary lighthouse on Hastings Point in far northern New South Wales, but some locals felt they were not properly consulted.<\/p>\n

“All good and well to bring Hollywood to the coast or to a city, but unless you can leave on a positive footing there’s no point in going there, because all we’ll end up doing is eroding our locations if we keep knocking them about,” he said.<\/p>\n
