OUR VISION IS TO TURN THE SPOTLIGHT BEHIND THE CAMERA AND MAKE FILM IMMERSIVE.

Hi, I’m Michael Holly and ever since my teenage years, the cinema has been my second living room.

In addition to more than 20 years of experience working in camera technology at ORF, I’ve written film reviews on my blog The Reel Therapist over the past few years. With FILMED ON LOCATION, I want to share my passion for film even further.

To do so, I gather background information and visual material to offer an informative and entertaining look behind the scenes.

My vision is to create a one-stop platform for everything related to film production — not just in Vienna, but beyond. A space where filmmakers are brought into the spotlight through interviews and podcasts, where they can share their experiences, and where an engaged audience can continuously discover new insights about their favorite movies and shows.

For questions and feedback:

For the research behind the FILMED ON LOCATION audio tour, numerous sources were consulted. In addition to the films themselves as primary material, contributors were interviewed, behind-the-scenes material was reviewed, and various publications were analyzed.

The images come from private archives, institutional archives, web archives, behind-the-scenes videos, and press materials. The authors are credited where known, but could not always be identified. If your rights as an author have been violated, please contact us at: info@filmed-on-location.com
