This online platform is like the Airbnb for scouting film locations. GETset allows you to offer up your home as a place where people can shoot for the film and television industry.
Currently available in the UK, USA, Canada, South Africa and across Europe, GETset not only helps you make some money if you have a place to offer up, it also helps filmmakers on a budget bring their project to realization. In addition to renting your home, hosts could also list their boat, office, shed, shop or even treehouse. Perfect for music video directors, independent filmmakers, TV companies and even Hollywood execs, the platform already hosts hundreds of film locations. This example of the sharing economy at work gives renters the ability to set their price as well.
