our service

Scottish Borders Film Focus (SBFF) advises on and facilitates all types of filming in the area. We welcome enquiries from the UK and abroad.

Our assistance is free as we work with filmmakers in an advisory role. Given a description of the type of production you intend to make and the kind of locations you are looking for we can suggest possible sites, supply photographs and make the necessary introductions.

As an information point we can advise you on the necessary permissions and procedures. Our staff have over 20 years' experience of running a film office and during the 9 years that SBFF has been operational we have built a database which now holds over 600 locations. We also hold information on local crew and equipment, as well as a whole range of companies that will be useful to filmmakers in production.

Please read our film charter, code of practice and environmentally friendly film policies, which outline the commitment of the region to encourage filming.
