This Abu Dhabi Film Location is where Star Wars Speeder Valley scenes were filmed. It’s an easy location to get but it is costly for reason, local hotels are luxury 6 star, and all location facilities are required.
Emirates Financial Towers is a twin tower block, film location in Dubai. Its impressive mirrored facade reflects the Burj Khalifa. It also has a good view down SZR. It is a 27 story twin-tower, the towers are connected on the 16th floor by a glass skybridge initially designed as an F&B space.
This old building facade has doubled as various film locations. The inside is actually a very 70s reception area and offices.
It has a factory behind it, but I just liked its façade so I kept it.
This empty quarry filming location is large enough to do car donuts in, it has a couple of smashed containers, old machine tyres and oil drums. There are a couple of working quarries near by should you want large machinery. There are contacts on our props section under construction.
Straight Desert Road Filmlocation for stunning car commercials. The long road stretches out in the middle of a vast desert landscape, with no other signs of civilisation in sight. The road is made of asphalt, standing stark in contrast with the surrounding desert sand. The scene is quiet and desolate, with only the occasional car passing by in the distance. The desert road appears endless, disappearing into the horizon, creating a sense of isolation and solitude. The colours of the desert are muted earth tones, with shades of brown, tan, and sandy beige dominating the landscape. The harsh sun beats down on the empty highway, casting long shadows across the barren terrain. This location works with cars, motorcycles, bikes, trucks and even skateboards. The road appears to be a single lane highway, with a desert landscape surrounding it. Whilst the road crosses a couple of rises the surrounding desert is vast and unspoilt. There are a couple of other location options very close by one has telegraph poles along its length which give it a timeless period feel. At times herds of camels traverse the plains, there isn’t an exact timeframe but the farm can be contacted to check their timetable or even organise a planed appearance. The location is ideal and lends itself to drone or helicopter filming and from height the redline becomes tiny. There’s not issue with any size unit and base camp here. If you intend to drive outside the limits here or do stunts production and location managers can organise police intermittent road closures. Dubai is close so there’s no shortage of professional crew, actors, models and props. For international clients needing a local partner, I first found this location whilst working with the producer Michael Essey who can surely assist you. Location managers Licenced with the Dubai Film Commission can easily permit this Straight Desert Road Filmlocation
This is an exclusive film location and any filming needs to be planed well in advance, with special care not to upset clients who could be on their one in a lifetime trip or honeymoon. This venue is in a luxurious class of its own. It’s manicured gardens, swimming pools and adjacent desert with undulating dunes are stunningly beautiful.
