    Hi Anne-Marie,

    Perhaps you would be up for writing a piece like this but for Oman. Shipping in gear, customs, insurance etc…your personal experience?

    Hi Anne-Marie,

    Good.

    You might find this recent Location Guide contributor article ‘ the cinematic potential of Oman’ an interesting read.

    The cinematic potential of Oman

    We’d love to hear about your experiences of filming in Oman following your shoot there.

    My email: murray.ashton@thelocationguide.com

    Have a great shoot.

    With every good wish,

    Hi Anne-Marie,

    Are you shooting in Oman and if so we can help hook you up with a local production service company or location fixer and battery rental there possibly.If not, please tell us where you are shooting so that we can make other suggestions. If Oman Air are telling you it is 2 batteries per person then I would advise against taking more.

    All the best,

    Murray

    Hi Alex & Kim,

    Many thanks for your comments. Yes, lots of people over the years have put up posts in their own languages. Feel free to do so but expect replies from fewer people as our global film community language is predominantly English.

    Looking forward to seeing you posts and replies on our pre-production forum.

    With every good wish,

    Murray
