With award season upon us, go behind the scenes and take a trip to one of the set locations used in a movie or campaign shot right in NSW.

Broken Hill

If Mad Max 2 and The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert aren’t enough to pique your interest, then we’re almost certain Mission Impossible 2 and Last Cab to Darwin will. Many filmmakers head to Broken Hill to film movies, with the stark beauty and vast desert landscapes providing a backdrop to incredible filming opportunities. Create your own Outback adventure in this quirky mining town and get a taste of the wild beauty and romance of the Outback.The town has attracted filmmakers for decades, with the circa 1880 Silverton Hotel and its surrounds being used in Australian productions such as Dirty Deeds and A Town Like Alice.

Tamworth

The natural beauty of the Tamworth region in Central NSW, with National Parks, spectacular views and charming country hospitality offered the perfect backdrop for Angelina Jolie’s 2014 directorial debut Unbroken. The critically acclaimed World War 2 film based on the life of Louis Zamperini was shot in Tanworth’s airport and King George V Avenue, as well as nearby small town Werris Creek.

Snowy Mountains

Hermès is a leading brand in the fashion world, with the luxury high-end retailer offering fine clothing, handbags and accessories coveted around the world. It’s easy to see why the fashion house chose NSW’s Snowy Mountains as the location for their Spring/Summer 2016 advertising campaign, with the year round alpine paradise offering mountains, rivers and glacial lakes in abundance. The campaign, shot on location in Mount Kosciuszko National Park by Japanese photographer Yoshihiko Ueda, celebrates Hermès profound link to nature and the inspiration it draws from it.

Sydney

Romantic comedy unINDIAN, with Bollywood Director Anupam Sharma at the helm, was filmed exclusively in Sydney across 23 locations including the University of New South Wales in Randwick, netball courts in Pennant Hills and a warehouse apartment in the trendy, inner-city suburb of St Peters. Iconic Sydney Harbour was of course a star of the show, with the backdrops of the Sydney Opera House, Sydney Harbour Bridge and stunning foreshore.

So there you have it. Australia has been used as inspiration for the movie industry for years. Why not create your own story and travel to some of New South Wales famous locations.
