film and television

Carlisle & Cumbria are fortunate to be able to provide a wide selection of backdrops and locations for all sorts of productions, pop videos and photographic shoots.

Carlisle alone features an original courtroom with cells; a pedestrianised City Centre; a classical Grade One listed Jacobean building: the high tech surroundings of the University of Cumbria; and the tranquil settings of Carlisle Cathedral and parkland - All within two square miles, reducing your shooting time and greatly reducing your costs.

The Lake District speaks for itself, with mile upon square mile of inspirational settings and dramatic background.

Added to these positive factors is the easy access by road, rail and air to the city, the availability of high class accommodation and an excellent relationship with Northwest Vision and Media. Marry all this with an extensive local media contact list and a thorough local knowledge of Carlisle & Cumbria and you are sure to succeed in whatever you want to create.
