Studio Babelsberg - Berlin




During my visit to berlin we visited Studio Babelsberg which has been the location of filming for blockbusters such as Inglorious Bastards,V for Vendetta,Bourne supremacy and most recently the three musketeers staring Orlando bloom.


The picture above is a street set which has been used and altered for different films including the cinema set in inglorious bastards. It was great seeing how the wood work and plastering guys could design photorealistic sets from weeks of researching.

As well as seeing the sets. We were able to look around the prop and costume warehouses where there were thousands of objects that had been used in films. A great moment for me was when the woman showing us round showed me the book used at the end of The lives of of others which is a favorite film of mine.
Above are some uniforms used in by actors such as Tom cruise in Valkyrie and Jude Law in Enemy at the gates. I really enjoyed the experience and it made me think about other jobs within the industry such as prop researchers for films would be a very exciting job.
