- Depending on your location, there are different ways to contact them. When you do contact them, remember to be transparent with what you're looking for. Don't overwhelm them. Give them just enough information for the project scope. Make sure you introduce yourself, and that you're a production company, and then give them the shoot dates you want to shoot, and maybe the times of the day that you want to shoot at their location. Giving them a brief overview lets them decide if they're a good fit for you without overwhelming them and them automatically saying no. No one wants to read a long email. Keep it short with minimal details, just enough for them to understand what you're asking, and tell them for more information, please contact me, and I'm happy to walk through all the details with you.
