The Location Guide and partners host a Soirée for Cannes Lions 2012

The Location Guide is hosting a Soirée at Cannes Lions 2012. In partnership with Fresco Film, the APA, Pure Scandinavia, the Sevilla Film Office, Finland Film Commission and Orange Films, our evening of drinks and networking will take place on Cannes’ Majestic Beach pier on June 20th.

Fresco Film is one of Spain’s most experienced production service companies and celebrates its 40th anniversary this year, and the Advertising Producers Association (APA) represents the interests of UK companies involved with production, post-production and visual effects in the commercials industry.

Pure Scandinavia is a Helsinki-based production service company covering Scandinavia and the Baltic nations and offering guidance in some of Europe’s best snow locations, while the Sevilla Film Office and Finland Film Commission cater for production needs in Seville and Finland, respectively. Orange Film has offices in Paris, London and New York, with the Paris branch servicing productions of all types throughout France, Corsica and Monaco, and also sometimes further afield.

Clara Lé, Commercial Director at The Location Guide, says: “We’re very excited to be hosting our Cannes Soirée on the glamorous Majestic Beach pier. It’s great to be partnering with companies that represent such a broad spectrum of the international commercials industry, and to be doing it at Cannes Lions, which is a real creative hub.”
