Florence and the Machine - New Video and Album Cover

We can't reveal all but Florence and the groovy machine did a rather successful video shoot and album cover photography shoot in one of our most loved locations.


Thanks to the crew and our very own Luke Philips for helping out.


p.s I tried to make this post groovy like Florence, did it work?

Daily Mail - Make your home a star

This very morning we, at Sarah Eastel Locations were pleased to be confronted with an article encouraging the general public to make their house into a symbol of celebrity, if it's shabby/chic or a re-modernised country barn: "Many homeowners believe, quite wrongly, that film and TV producers look only for the Downtown Abbey - in other words, they want period properties. But there are a vast array of productions that often take place in the most modest of locations."
Check it out for yourselves on page 80!

Lets show a little love

Just rediscovered this beautiful Grade 2 listed library on our books. This 17th century library located in Manchester is a 1420's grade 1 listed building. Beautiful but ominous; dark panels and chandeliers. This location is reminiscent of a library in Gormenghast or any gothic fantasy riddled with corruption and greed. Imagine young scholars soaking up knowledge while priests linger nearby attempting to sanctify this gloomy temple of words.

Why doesn't everyone do it?

Why doesn't everyone think spiders are an indispensable part of our ecological system and should be treated with awe and respect? Why doesn't everyone like Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel (the spin off series) with equal consideration for their individual artistic flair? Why is everyone so damn difficult to please?

Well... in regards to registering your property with Sarah Eastel Locations and then waiting for the pounds to KaChing, it really is that simple. It is completely free to register, then you send us some info, some photographs on a disc and pow you're on the website and ready to be chosen by film and photography companies. Who knows, George Clooney could be drinking your tea, sitting on your couch and making small talk with your cat in no time.

V.IMPORTANT- Calling on New Talent in the form of filmmakers, script and screen writers

Sarah Eastel is looking for new talent, in the form of filmmakers, script and screen-play writers, to create 3-4 minute films. The catch is that is is imperative the film had a focus on a specific object or location. They can be abstract, whimsical, emotive, hilarious (not too dark please, this will make sense when more details are released on the project) but they must have the item or place heavily featured (not just a fleeting shot or two). The skill will be how to craft your creativity with the spec.


This is an innovative program being launched by Sarah Eastel Locations to help new talent get off the ground...
