If you really dig the “Dog Whisperer with Cesar Millan,” then you’ve got two people to thank: Millan, the dog trainer and star, and SueAnn Fincke, a Belvidere native who is the series producer and director. “Cesar says she is the heart and …

Occasionally, I get emails asking how to get started in location scouting / location management. I am often suspicious that people that write these letters are looking for a way - ANY way - out of whatever it is they are currently doing (and potentially dislike) rather than actually being genuinely interested in the location services field - It’s a “real” job with lots of responsibility and very well not nearly as glamorous as you might have imagined.
Didja know the Location Department is the department in charge of making sure the trash gets carried away at the end of a shoot?
Also, let’s face it, I am a pretty easy target - a quick email requesting a free look into the crystal ball is a pretty cheap investment in a career and I am pretty easy to find.
… so how might anyone really know they want to be a location scout?
It’s almost like, if they did know, they wouldn’t be asking.
…but that’s just me, and as remote as it might be
there is a distinct possibility that my thinking on this could be flawed.
![]()
That said, this is how things happenned for me:
![]()
I attended the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale (AIFL) in Fort Lauderdale, FL and earned an Associate of Science Degree (AA) in Photography.
![]()
Also at the time, I, of course, had aspirations to become a world-famous, world-travelled, filthy-rich, rockstar commercial photographer. When the major ad agencies of the world and top-shelf design firms of the world didn’t beat a path to my door upon graduation, I set about trying to learn more about my craft in the “real” world, seeking work as a photo assistant in the Fort Lauderdale and Miami media markets. At the time I entered the workforce and with considerations toward the size of the market I was in, I found staff positions in short supply, however, there was a blooming market for freelance photo assistants, helped by a blossoming South Beach “media scene” (and of course the generally balmy year-round weather in the region, which includes incredible stretches of pleasant, dry weather in the winter…) being fueled strongly by the fashion industry (as well as interest by advertising and media of many other types…), renovations and rehabilitation of the Art Deco buildings in the South Beach area of Miami Beach and a general boomtown economic environment of South Florida at the time. Miami Vice was in production then. In addition to working with local photographers I had a great opportunity to work with a number of photographers and production companies from all over the world, including a number of European-based teams and teams from New York, southern California and Chicago, to name a few.
![]()
One of the photographers I worked with as a photo assistant in south Florida was a fashion advertising photographer from the New York City area, Tom Contrino. I worked as a local second assistant with Tom for two seasons and when his first assistant moved up the ladder to a photographer position in the still life area of the business back in New York City, I was offered an opportunity to move north to the New York City area and become Tom’s full-time, staff first assistant, which I accepted.
![]()
In addition to freelance location scouting and production coordination for photography (both of which I discovered very early on that I found very gratifying and enjoyable) once I went to work to work for Tom I had an opportunity to expand my experience in these areas and learn an enormous amount about what it takes to operate a successful commercial photography business from the inside out and on a day - to - day basis - in addition to jobs we produced for clients, which often at times included location scouting and production coordination, in addition to my regular duties on shoots as a camera assistant and lighting tech, I was soon handling many back end chores such as hiring extra assistants, invoicing, equipment rental / purchasing, insurance inventorying, promotion - it all rolls together in a busy photography business.
![]()
My tenure with Contrino Photography also offered me an excellent opportunity to travel and even tho I settled in New Jersey, in the New York City metro area, I travelled quite a bit with Tom for work back to south Florida, to California, New Mexico, Nevada, Colorado, Chicago, and other destinations around the U.S.
![]()
Eventually, after six years with Tom, it was, of course, time to move on and I became, once again, temporarily, a freelance photo assistant / production assistant, with aspirations AND experience needed to develop my own freelance location scouting / production business, working with photographer / director / producer clientele; subsequently, providing location services / locations for film / television / photo / events and production services for photography is what my current occupation consists of. Thru networking and marketing / promotion I have extended my location services beyond still photography to include video, motion picture and event clients.
![]()
The “new frontier” for me (when I started out there was no email / we photographed locations using print film and made manila paper location folders filled with panoramic photos made by taping together 4×6 color prints…) is HDRi and image-based lighting for digital imaging (still and motion) and I have an association with Q-spheres to this end.
![]()
I keep a running blog and online resume of sorts of jobs as I complete them which can be found at rrhobbs.us
![]()
My website and home page, nyc.locationscout.us is both a blog and resource for location services and production. Please spend some time on the FAQS page! Use the search page and web and dig around for results for relevant location scouting search terms.
![]()
Look on the sidebar, I can be found on most of the popular social networks (i.e. Twitter, Facebook, etc.)
![]()
Anyway, that’s how it’s happenned for me - there is no magic formula for entering and developing a successful location scouting career - everybody is different and in the beginning it is often difficult to tell what you are truly interested in personally and / or how / if you might be of problem-solving service to enough people to make a career for yourself. SO much is tied up in personalities, personal priorities and changing needs, business relationships, aptitude and developed skills. - You really may only THINK you want to become a location scout / location manager… The only sure way to find out is to get out there and start DOING.
![]()
I always tell aspiring newbie location scouts to look for film school student film projects and productions to work on - attending film school is an excellent background for a location scout, some grounding in filmmaking is a very neccesary prerequisite. Look for start up and no / low budget short films and movies to volunteer for - you get out what you put in - hell, even if you are “just” sweeping the floors, you still get to watch - and learn - you have to expect you are initially likely letting yourself in for a period of going hungry and still, somehow, making ends meet - you have to be generally resourceful, develop keen communication / negotiating and research skills and you have be willing to toot your own horn (without being annoying) - but as you learn and start becoming a problem solver - if you love your work and are good at it, it will show! - making someone’s life easier, they will tell their friends and associates - The rest is yours to discover and grow by.

The Register-Guard (Eugene, OR) | ‘Animal House’ revisited | The 1978 comedy lives on with an inside look during a two-hour documentary tonight | By Mark Baker | Published: August 13, 2008 12:00AM
“…Thirty years after the release of the classic National Lampoon comedy filmed in Eugene and Cottage Grove, it’s still local legend and most likely always will be.”
“…Produced for less than $3 million, “Animal House” turned out to be one of the most profitable movies ever made, bringing in $141.6 million at the box office. The U.S. Library of Congress even deemed it a “culturally significant” film in 2001, selecting it for preservation in the National Film Registry. It also made Bravo’s list of the “100 Funniest Movies” ever made, and was No. 36 on the American Film Institute’s list of the 100 best American comedies.”

An important part of the location scout / location manager / producer / director / photographer collective workflow is obtaining a property release or location agreement, which is written permission to use images of a property or location for publication, particularly in instances where private property is concerned. This permission must be obtained from the property owner.
Likewise, property owners should insist on a property release or location agreement being signed by all involved parties, if for no other reason than furthering the interest of a general atmosphere of understanding and cooperation.
There are many more or less standard legal forms available which should be customized as may be appropriate with the production company’s and / or end-client’s information as well as showing the amount of monies to be paid to the property owner and any special conditions as may exist.
Below are some useful property release resources:

American Society of Media Photographers (ASMP) | Home > Commerce > Legal Resources > Property Releases Tutorial | By Richard Weisgrau and Victor S. Perlman
“This article originally appeared in “A Subject of Urban Legend,” which is posted in our Legal Resources area.
The whole subject of property releases is filled with urban legend, assumption and myth, along with a bit of actual law. As you know, using a person’s likeness for trade or advertising purposes requires a model release. That is because a person has a reputation to protect, a right of privacy and (in some states) a right of publicity. Property has none of these rights. So why should you go to the trouble to get a release?”
American Society of Media Photographers (ASMP) | Home > Commerce > Legal Resources > Releases Tutorial | Why you need releases
“A release is a written agreement between you and the person you are photographing, or the person who owns the property you are photographing. The purpose of the release is to protect you from any future lawsuits the person might file for claims such as defamation and invasion of privacy.”
The ASMP piece directly above discusses property and model releases. The location professional will obviously be most concerned with the property release parts of the discussion, however it is probably a good idea to have a general grounding in both types of releases especially if your job descriptions cross over between location services / general production / photography / directing.
About.com | Desktop Publishing | Property Release
“Definition: When using pictures that contain clearly recognizable places or other property (such as pets), a property release protects you against legal claims by the owner of the property.”
Fotalia Blog | How do you download a model and property release?
“Fotolia offers personalized model releases to you for various situations (pictures of a minors, pictures of models, and photographs of personal property).”

Actors Union Approves Pact With Producers

“Members of Hollywood actors unions approved a new three-year contract in a vote that was closely watched in Hollywood as an indication of whether the larger Screen Actors Guild will be able to continue pressing for a better deal in its own contentious labor talks with film and television producers.”

“The New Hampshire Film and Television Office, as part of the New Hampshire Department of Cultural Resources, works to expand business activity and employment throughout the state by acting as a liaison between the film industry and an established network of government agencies, the state’s film industry workforce, and private residential and business property owners.
Working in tandem with the New Hampshire Film Commission, a fifteen-member advisory board made up of film industry professionals, government officials, and representatives of state associations, the Film Office is responsible for location research, public relations, literature publication and distribution, and general production support in an effort to broaden the cultural and economic impact of film and television production in the state.”

New Hampshire Film & Television Office | A Property Owner’s Guide to Filming Locations (pdf) | From the New Hampshire Film & Television Office | What you need to know when a production company comes calling
“Significant dollars are added to the state’s economy each year by film and video production companies and commercial still photographers who choose to work in New Hampshire. One of the ways those production dollars get into New Hampshire’s economy is via the fees paid to private property owners for use of “locations.”
While written specifically for New Hampshire property owners, this guide is pretty universal, chocked full useful information for anyone with an interest in having their property used for film, tv / video, photo or even events.
NH Film’s Property Owner’s Guide to Filming Locations is highly recommended reading so I will be adding a link on the FAQs Page on nyc.locationscout.us

Minnesota Creative Source | About Us
“Building on our years of success producing the Minnesota Creative Sourcebook, this site expands our ability to generate exposure for photography, illustration, design, film & video, audio, printing and related industry services.”
I found the Minnesota Creative Source and was impressed by its design (by Treefort (Minneapolis, MN) and implementation of RSS feeds to distribute its content. The Minnesota Creative Source feeds contain generous helpings of visual media, i.e. photos and multimedia as well
My feeling about RSS is, especially, given RSS’s simplicity of use, that RSS is currently a vastly under-utilized media and information distribution technology with much unrealized potential that is sort of waiting for the much of the world to catch up with it!
FYI an often good way to tell you have found RSS content is by this icon (…via Wikimedia Commons…)
