\"\"Cze\u015b\u0107! Hello!<\/p>\n

On Dec. 1, 2020, during a special edition of the Location Managers Guild International virtual chat series \u201cCoffee Tuesdays\u201d, LMGI members enjoyed a Virtual Familiarization Tour (FamTour) of Poland with the aid of host, FilmWarsaw, the Warsaw Film Commission, the Polish Producers Alliance (KIPA), and Postnovation post-production. Moderated by Jennifer “JJ” Levine\/LMGI, Dodd Vickers\/LMGI and Dana Pohl\/Head of Projects at Polish Producers Alliance, we \u201cFell In Love with Warsaw\u201d and explored a few regions represented by their seven film commissions.<\/p>\n

LMGI members virtually trekked through Lom\u00e9: the City of Thousand Contrasts and Poland\u2019s \u0141\u00f3d\u017a Region, a popular region for filmmaking. Poland\u2019s vast locations range from historic castles, palaces, industrial factories, sacred spaces, modern contemporary buildings, greenland and unique alternative spaces. Whether it is their mountains, two-thousand lakes, their salt mines, landmarks like Bia\u0142owie\u017ca, Europe\u2019s Oldest Primeval Forest, the Palace of Culture and Science, or Riese\u2019s seven underground structures located in the Owl Mountains and Ksi\u0105\u017c Castle in Lower Silesia, LMGI member Todd Christensen can testify, \u201cThe assortment and variety of locations are extraordinary!\u201d<\/p>\n

Pohl educated to us that Poland, a country flanked by Germany, Berlin, Slovakia, Ukraine, Belarus, Lithuania, The United Kingdom, Czech Republic, France, Italy and Spain, belongs to NATO. It enjoys an alliance with the European Union providing the freedom of movement that allows a seamless filmmaking process. A-list accommodations with diverse cuisine, fifteen five-star hotels, and a plethora of resources that accommodate film production professionals also make filming in Poland desirable.<\/p>\n

Alicja Grawon \u2013 Jaksik\/President of the Board, Polish Producers Alliance (KIPA) walked us through their 30% cash rebate film incentive program\u2019s guidelines and requirements, Polish Film Institute grants and production financing.<\/p>\n

Mateusz Kozak\/ Post Novation explained that there are no technological boundaries limiting Poland\u2019s capabilities. Poland has world renowned pre-Production, production and post-production offerings such as gaming, digital restorations, virtual production, animation, mastering, facility sound stage rentals in addition to experienced film crews onsite.<\/p>\n

FamTours have been one of the benefits of membership, and although COVID-19 has made it difficult to travel, film commissions have become creative in ways to present their locations.<\/p>\n
