We will begin with a weekly location series highlighting various locations around Thailand. This week we start with Phuket, one of the most well known destination and many production companies' favorite location to shoot in Thailand.
Phuket is one of the most popular
tourists’ destinations in the world. It is famous for its nightlife, fine
dining, beautiful beaches and islands. Phuket
has also been a popular location for film and commercial shoots.
Phuket was formerly known as
Thalang and historically been a major trading route between India and China.
The region formerly derived its wealth from tin and rubber, however in modern
times; the region’s economy is driven by rubber tree plantations and tourism with
areas like Patong, Karon and Kata being the most popular ones.
Phuket’s popularity as location
shoot is chiefly from the exceptional topography of the region. 70 percent of
the area is covered with mountains which stretch from north to south while the remaining
30 percent are plains located in the central and eastern parts of the island. This
make it possible to shoot any kind of story in Phuket and with excellent
infrastructure of Phuket, it is not difficult for transportation for the crew
from the location to the excellent hotels on the island.
Benetone Films has also in the
past line produced many feature films and commercials notably Bollywood
blockbuster Ek Tha Tiger and Pepsi commercial respectively.
