Lauren, Happy to help: Gingerfilms has a producer for Chengdu and Chongqing and an English/Chinese Speaking driver/producer we can bring in。 We can handle local permits for the area and if needed arrange police assistance in Chengdu。Further we have shot in Chengdu and neighboring Yunnan and Chongqing provinces fairly recently。
We can also help you with those pesky entry visas and meet your director at the airport with all scouting and arrangements complete。
China’s annual Qingming festival is coming up on April 5th with some people taking off the entire week prior to your shoot so you may have even less time to prepare than you think。 If confirmed quickly then your dates for shooting are still okay。
I don‘t see the landmark list attached but I can help you to isolate what is viewable from the highways and roads such as Jiu Yan Qiao (nine eyes bridge), the nightlife area next to it, Qintai road with it’s traditional buildings outlined in lights or the large Mao statue in Tainfu Square.
