Getting the Island into the Spotlight
Renting your house or home out is one thing, but having it featured in a film, tv show or ad is something else entirely, and if you’re looking for some extra income, then Lobster Locations who have set up a world class agency for film, television, and photography locations with an ambition to showcase the Island and all of its potential to the wider world, should be your first port of call.
Since its inception, Lobster Locations has worked with an impressive list of clients including Lad Bible, Shine, Endamol as well as TV series, The Beast Must Die and The Cockfields, both of which were filmed on the Island using the company’s locations. They also work with local Island businesses providing locations for photoshoots and video work curating a selection of properties across the Island that are truly location worthy. Ideal for those with second homes or Island residents looking for an addition stream of income, Lobster Locations will be working in conjunction with estate agents Spence Willard to offer film and television companies exclusive locations on the Island from private homes to well-known landmarks and historic properties.
With Lisa Henry and Rowan Middleton Leal at the helm of this exciting business you can be safe in the knowledge that you’re in experienced hands. Lisa has first-hand experience in home rental as a location of many years long standing and from working for a London locations agency whilst Rowan is an ex-City lawyer and general counsel for the EMA – so has all of the practical legal expertise for drawing up contracts and documents. Lisa says, “We have excellent relationships with the travel companies so any concerns with transport and getting equipment or people here can be dealt with and an extensive Isle of Wight network built up over many years.”
