Frequently Asked Questions — Sydney
Q1.What permits are required to film a commercial in Sydney?
Shoots on public land need council approval, with Transport for NSW sign-off for roads and Sydney Harbour foreshore sites, and National Parks and Wildlife Service licences for beaches and headlands. electriclime° maps which locations need which approval during pre-production and files the applications on your behalf.
Q2.Can one production cover multiple Australian states?
Yes. A single shoot week can combine Sydney harbour and CBD locations with Blue Mountains, coastal or outback locations, and we plan crew and equipment movement between states so the schedule holds. Interstate freight and crew travel are budgeted upfront.
Q3.Does Australia offer incentives for commercial production?
Australia's federal offsets are structured around qualifying feature, television and documentary production, and commercial work rarely qualifies directly. State screen agencies do offer location attraction and production support in some cases, and electriclime° reviews eligibility with you before the budget is finalised.
Q4.What crew and equipment is available in Sydney?
Sydney has deep camera, grip, lighting and art departments accustomed to international campaigns, with Arri, Sony and RED packages plus motion control and high-speed rigs held locally. Specialist units that are not on the ground are sourced from Melbourne or freighted in.
