    Im working for a production company by the name of Forsberg & Co here in Stockholm.

    One of our largest clients wants to do a commercial were the opening shot should be of a tropical field/garden/jungle with non-scandinavian flowers. Something looking like Eden.

    Some pictures can be found on
    http://www.familjenpeyron.se/2ndunit.jpg

    The idea is that the mineral-water that we are trying to sell has the taste of tropical fruit.

    If i did it here in Sweden, i would go out together with a Dop/opertor and shoot the plate myself, with a red-camera, and then send the material via ftp. I would maybe bring a driver. Thats it.

    Is there someone out there that can help me with this?

    I would need this to be done in late March.

    Hello,

    I live in the Bahamas and I have 35 acres of a wild tropical field located on Abaco, Bahamas…

    Its local and wild plants and we can add additional flower/plants to complete the look.

    The property is on the waterfront
    and pictures are attached.

    Dear Nicias,

    From your storyboards I can see you need a tropical jungle with beach, I can certainly recommend Rincón beach, located in the north east part of the Dominican Republic and considered amongst the ten most beautiful beaches in the world. There’s also a RED camera available on the island, it would save you the travel risks and additional insurance costs. A couple of reference pics attached. Let me know if I can be of help.

    Hi Niclas,
    I think that Port Antonio in Jamaica is a perfect location for your spot.
    You can see more of Port Antonio online . It is a spectacular location that has been the background for many films including COCKTAIL and CLUB PARADISE
    These pics of Frenchman’s Cove are just a taste.
    Let me know if I can help. We also have a full RED camera kit here with a set of high speed lenses.
    I am a Production manager here on the island

    Hi Niclas,

    Murray from the Location Guide contacted me re this location.
    I am a Production Manager here in Jamaica and am suggesting two areas of Jamaica for this project.
    1. Port Antonio – Frenchman’s Cove Beach & Jungle Area
    2. Ocho Rios – Drax Hall Property – Columbus Cove and Jungle Area, and Laughing Waters

    The first two pictures are of Frenchman’s Cove Jungle & Beach area in Port Antonio and the 3rd and 4th pictures are of Columbus Cove – Drax Hall and a jungle area on the same property.

    Jamaica also has a red camera with a set of high speed lenses available along with grip and electric equipment as well as an excellent compliment of crew in all areas.

    To view other photographs a link as been sent to your email address.

    I hope we can be of assistance to you.
