Barcelona Plató Film Commission movie production

Barcelona Plato attends the Cannes Film Festival and Market
Once again, the city's film commission has taken part in the audiovisual market organised in parallel to the International Cannes Film Festival. Via the Marche International du Film (MIF), Barcelona Plató Film Commission has promoted both the city's most various locations suitable for shoots and the city's wide range of companies linked to the audiovisual industry.
Production companies from USA, London, Germany, Portugal and New Zealand have contacted the film commission's representatives at the Catalan Films & TV stand searching for information and looking for the Barcelona Plató Audiovisual Production Guide.
On the other hand, as in previous editions, the MIF has been an important meeting point for the European film commissions. This time, the film commissions have continued with the talks to constitute a European Film Commission's Network. The proposed network would work to coordinate the tasks of Film Commissions in any European country, region or city, as well as facilitate the shoots for companies of any nationality.

Barcelona Plató Film Commission movie production
Barcelona Film Commission - the first step to shooting in the city. In 2004, 402 productions of the 900 or so shoots that took place in Barcelona sought the assistance of the city’s Film Commission; an outstanding number compared to the 118 that were helped in 2000.
Thanks to better coordination and cooperation with other city council departments involved in the authorisations for the shoots, Barcelona Plató Film Commission has increased its activity by 240%, since it started its activity at full efficiency in 2000. In 2004, 35 films were assisted by the Film Commission, as well as 51 documentaries, 100 TV and Video programms, and an outstanding 126 shortfilms, the genre with the highest increase.
Such results confirm not only that the city keeps up with its appeal as a set, but also that the city council structure is strengthening its ability to coordinate the non-commercial filming activity in Barcelona, through the Institut de Cultura (ICUB).
