Two productions shooting in Croatia this year, two very different uses of the country: The Forsytes and Doug Liman’s Snake Island.

We looked at what each one filmed, and what that says about shooting in Croatia now.

Read it on our blog:

See how recent productions used Croatia for period, city and island doubles, all close together. Plan your Croatia shoot with Abroad Films today.

Summer's almost done in Croatia, which is when it gets even more useful. Beaches without the crowd, coastal towns you can actually close off. Light that holds late into the afternoon and doesn't fight you at midday. The 25% rebate hasn't gone anywhere either. If you're planning autumn or winter, you know where to find us!
