Frankfurt: Casting und Location Regina Kaczmarek
Frankfurt is cosmopolitan and urban, and therefore an ideal location for commercials for international brands. Last year Mercedes Benz, Hyundai and VW used the city as a backdrop.
Frankfurt is not only a hotspot for tourism but also acts as a magnet for domestic and foreign films and photo shoots.
Responsible for the location scouting, the obtaining of the permits in combination with the employment of the traffic supervisors, these productions could be realised in Frankfurt. Regina Kaczmarek from the agency of the same name was responsible for location, approvals, organization and casting.

Regina Kaczmarek, founder of Frankfurt-based Agentur Kaczmarek, was an art director before setting up her current business. Today, her company handles casting, locations and permitting across a range of media including TV, commercials and photo shoots.
Regina has worked on a number of high-profile projects including a recent film for Samsung entitled '360 degree VR' to celebrate the 25th anniversary of German reunification, as well as a documentary for the US Olympic Committee about the East German team's doping at the 1976 Montreal Olympics.
"Regina emphasises the value of expert knowledge in being able to identify the right locations - especially in urban enviroments: 'I know a lot about architecture because I was involved in putting on a series of architecture-based events for a number of years,' she says.
She also agrees that getting the balance between film and the real world is crucial: 'If you find a nice location but have no permit, that's no use to anyone. You have to know how to make things happen, for example when producers want to get permits for drone cameras.'" Andy Frey, KFTV.

"Finding a location is easy. But the search for the right location is always an adventure. You never know exactly what to expect. It is all the more important to rely on the experience and intuition of a trusted partner. Considering the professional holistic view, the right locations often come from inconspicuous places. Casting is not art. People are not material, but ways of identification. So we look for exactly what our clients want, and we find it! Street life, studio and video casting are the requirements for a good index, and our experienced casting directors select and decide."
