Film Friendly Perth

Jean-Paul Horré – I Met a Girl - Monsoon Pictures

The City of Perth supports the screen industry and welcomes producers to film their features, shorts and television commercials in Perth.

We are here to support your creative ambitions, facilitate a positive experience with our local communities, and connect you to local businesses that can support your projects. There has never been a better time to film in the City of Perth. With Perth Film Studios open for business, Edith Cowan University's Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts now in the heart of the city, and North Metropolitan TAFE and the University of Western Australia building the next generation of creative talent close by, the City of Perth is a ready-made creative hub for the production of feature films and television content.

Underpinning the City’s creative energy is a truly exceptional setting. From heritage sandstone buildings to glittering new glass towers, laneways with small eateries and relaxed cafes, all set against the majestic canvas of the Swan River and the magically diverse gardens of Kings Park. The City can portray the past, the present, and the future with multiple scenic locales all within easy reach of each other. Long days and clear, wide natural light come courtesy of reliable sunshine all year long.

The City boasts a rich history of feature films, short films and television series, and it offers an unique combination of range, beauty and simplicity - the kind of environment where both cast and crew can truly enjoy the work as much as the finished article.

Commercial filming

The City of Perth provides filmmakers with a dedicated Film Liaison Officer as a single point of contact throughout the production process.
