Nature, architecture or unique scenarios
The south of Switzerland amazes for its varied and contrasting territory. Ideal settings for a multitude of screenplays just a few kilometers from each other.
LOCATION database
Our location database is accessible online and is available to interested audiovisual production companies. Continuously updated, it collects a selection of places according to different types and categories. Based on requests from the production, we will check the availability, conditions of use and characteristics of each single location.
Stories
The region is told through the eyes of a director or other industry professional, showing not only picturesque images and glossy photos, but also unexpected and less conventional suggestions, demonstrating how Ticino is the ideal place to tell all kinds of stories.
PROPOSE YOUR LOCATION
Help the Ticino Film Commission to enhance the territory and propose new corners for future film sets! We are always looking for new locations to propose: houses of all kinds, monuments, public and private infrastructures, natural places with their landscapes. But also closed spaces, interiors furnished and not, we are always looking for suitable places to tell a story. To propose a place to add to our database, contact us and we will provide you with all the useful information.
It is also possible to report locations through your choice of social media using the hashtag #ticinofilmlocation.
What is Green Mapping?
Green Mapping serves as a guide to identify facilities and services that embrace sustainable practices. This initiative aims to provide "green" information to local, national, and international productions, as well as green consultants working in our region, thereby contributing to the green transition. The mapping process is carried out by a team of certified green consultants with the support of the Ticino Film Commission and Azione Film Verde / Aktion Grüner Film, a national association for audiovisual professionals engaged in sustainable transitions.
Who Can Participate, and What Are the Criteria?
All locations that already follow or are transitioning to sustainable practices can be included in the mapping process. After an initial interview with the working group and an evaluation of sustainability practices, relevant information on qualifying locations will be compiled and published online, making it accessible to interested parties. The working group will periodically update the information in continuous dialogue with the involved facilities to incorporate new relevant data.
