Thinking about filming in Sweden?
Sweden is a great country to film in. We have been very
successful in the motion picture, commercial and music video market
for
many years. This is not only because of the good creative environment,
but also because of the quality of the productions, film crews and
modern equipment available here.
Sweden is a vast country. It's about 1600 km from north to south and
500 km from east to west. The northern half of Sweden has a
more arctic climate, pretty much like Siberia and northern Canada. The
landscape is made out of endless forests of pines and firs, wild
rivers
running through it, cold lakes, old mountains in the west and a long
coastline in the east. What makes this area very special is it's long
summer days. In the most northern parts, the sun never sets during the
middle of the summer. In the winter it is the opposite. The sun never
rises above the horizon.
The Swedish northern territory is a very popular place to shoot car
commercials in, because of it's wilderness, sense of isolation and the
beautiful ambient light. The area also guarantees snow during
wintertime, making it popular for shoots requiring the white stuff!
The southern part of Sweden has a milder climate. It does snow during
the winter, but not as much as in the north. Southern Sweden has
four distinct seasons. This makes it popular to come here for shoots
requiring specific seasons. The landscape is made of forests, lakes,
smaller rivers, hills, fields, farms and a very long coastline with
beaches, cliffs and islands.
Located on Sweden’s eastern coast is Stockholm, the capital. Stockholm
is a very beautiful city surrounded by water.
Many visitors describe Stockholm as the most beautiful capital in the
world. Stockholm has an “old town” with houses from 17th century with
a huge French inspired castle in the middle of it. The city also offers
endless examples of both old and modern Scandinavian architecture.
Many of them typify the popular Scandinavian functionalism.
Outside of Stockholm is a huge archipelago consisting of thousands of
small beautiful islands.
