Western Norway Film Commission

Western Norway Film Commission works with producers, directors, and production departments worldwide offering free services to film and tv projects eyeing a shoot in Western Norway.

Ever since Lucasfilm chose Western Norway as the backdrop for Empire Strikes Back (1980), the region has been the preferred international production destination in Scandinavia.

If you aim to co-produce with Norway, Western Norway Film Commission acts as a liaison with local producers and funds. On a case-by-case basis, WNFC invites producers to production meetings with local producers.

We provide ongoing support to match the needs of your production, including budget consulting, research, introduction to valuable contacts and possible partners.

We aim to make life easier for visiting directors, producers, art directors and location managers in their search for the ideal location. Send us your location requirements, and we will provide you with a tailor-made portfolio of location photos matching your project. On a case-by-case basis WNFC invites producers, directors or heads of departments to location scouting trips to get familiar with the filming opportunities in the region.

All services offered for free, to feature film projects, tv drama and major commercials.

We will introduce you to experienced line producers, and help you find the services and people your shoot requires. Norwegian film crew is renowned for their efficient production skills. You can look forward to working with us!
