Filming Fireplaces

Fireplaces in film locations can be more than just a feature in a room. They can be used for setting the scene, creating ambience and atmosphere. Warmth, tension, intimacy or drama, the fireplace establishes the mood. 

At Location Creation, directors love our variety of working fireplaces and we are here to help them choose the right one for their brief.
