Scout — Location Booking for Film Production

Most marketplace listings show square footage, price, and a star rating. None of that tells a line producer whether they can actually shoot there.

So this one leads with the numbers that decide the booking: 200 amps, 22 ft ceilings, ≤40 crew, 6 truck spaces, grid height, load-in access. A location fails on power or truck parking long before anyone argues about the rate.

Decisions worth naming:

— "Place 48-hour hold" instead of "Book now." Production doesn't book, it holds. The button had to match how the industry actually works. — North light and golden hour surfaced on the hero, because those are the first two questions a DP asks about a daylight stage. — Exact address withheld until booking confirmation, matching how location owners really operate. — Reviews written by crew, with the caveat left in — "the grid is fixed at eighteen feet, so plan your rigging around it." A review with a limitation in it reads as real. One without never does. — Rate benchmarked against comparable stages, so the price arrives as context instead of a number the user has to go research. — Photo set ordered to answer scouting questions in sequence: interior, exterior, rigging, blank wall, street approach.

The visual work is the easy half. The research is what makes a listing page usable by the person who has to sign for it.
