What is a location recce?
A location recce, or location scout, is a visit to a potential filming location to decide whether it works creatively and practically. A recce checklist helps you record the same information consistently at every location you visit.
Why do I need a location recce checklist?
A location can look perfect in photos and still be unworkable on the day. A checklist prompts you to check access, parking, power, toilets, noise, light, permissions and neighbours, so problems are found before you commit. Comparing completed checklists makes it easier to choose between options.
What should it include?
Record the address, contact details, access and loading, parking, power, toilets and facilities, noise sources, natural light, available space for crew, safety concerns, permit needs and photos.
