HOW TO SHOWCASE YOUR PROPERTY AS A FILM LOCATION
Moab to Monument Valley Film Commission receives location requests daily from the entertainment industry. These requests range from feature films, television movies, commercials, music videos, corporate media and still photography shoots. If you have an interest in listing your home, business or property on our online location database, we have tips and guidelines for success. The locations listed in the locations gallery on this website are on a shared database with the Utah Film Commission
A Few Things to Know:
-
There is no cost to list a property in the Database.
-
Once a location is approved, a listing will be created by the Utah Film Commission and made public for viewing by film professionals.
-
Contact information and private residential addresses will not be visible to the public.
-
Location information is requested by a location scout or film production representative, who are then given the location’s primary contact phone number and/or email address from the Moab to Monument Valley Film Commission
-
Once contacted by a location scout or film production, property owners are under no obligation to say yes if the production is not a good fit.
-
All correspondence will be done between the film location’s primary contact and the inquiring production company. The Moab to Monument Valley Film Commission is here to offer support to both parties.
Still Interested? Submit a Potential Film Location:

What Happens Next?
After you have submitted your location information to the Utah Film Commission, you will receive a confirmation email. Someone from our team will review and approve your listing to be included in the (UFC) Film Locations Database and (MMVFC) Locations Gallery.
We receive location requests from all types of productions; small local student-produced shorts to large studio-produced features, or productions with small budgets to blockbuster-sized budgets. When a production company or location scout requests additional information about your property, we will put them in touch with you directly. Please note, a homeowner is not obligated to accommodate all filming requests and site rental fees and availability will be negotiated between the production company and the homeowner.
For more information about photographing your property, completing the online Location Submission Form and what questions to discuss with a location scout or production company, please read our guidelines for How To List Your Property In The Film Locations Database.
