South Australian Film Corporation presents the world-renowned Flinders Ranges and Coober Pedy regions.
Dusty red roads, ancient mountain ranges, spectacular gorges and rugged moonscapes, the South Australian Outback has it all, and it’s just on state capital city Adelaide’s doorstep.
Venture to the world-renowned Flinders Ranges or Coober Pedy regions and take in some of the oldest landscapes in the world that double as accessible, premier filming locations.
“Gold looks absolutely spectacular, the Flinders Ranges is an incredible landscape, and the town of Leigh Creek a perfect hub for accommodating cast and crew. In every direction, there are spectacular locations and finding the right locations for Gold was paramount to the visual style and to capturing a harsh yet picturesque landscape for a survival film.”
Anthony Hayes, Director and Writer on Gold
“I couldn’t be more impressed with the locations. I really don’t think we could have made (Mortal Kombat) as gritty and as authentic and as epic in visual scale anywhere else… I don’t know where else we would have found the locations we needed in Australia. Adelaide and South Australia are a filmmaker’s city and state – there is a history and a pedigree here, but it hasn’t been overshot, it hasn’t been over utilised, so it’s actually just sort of sitting here waiting to be harnessed for what it really has.”
Simon McQuoid, Director, Mortal Kombat
“Density and population size sets South Australia well apart from others and offers a distinct advantage both on and off the screen. Well supported and welcomed by local communities, councils and government, an economy of scale puts more on the screen. South Australia offers epic settings from rugged and sublime coastal beaches, verdant hills and country, arid and remote deserts and towns.”
Paul Ranford, Producer, Stateless
South Australia offers international productions an excellent production base, showcasing diverse locations just a few miles from the capital city of Adelaide, outstanding incentives, state of the art facilities at the Adelaide Studios and world-class post-production and VFX companies.
