International Film Sets

One of the most famous film sets is in Hollywood, Los Angeles, USA. I am focusing on films that have been filmed on sets around the world! New Zealand has been made very famous for the beautiful scenery that was emphasized in The Lord of the Rings films. There were scenes filmed all the way through New Zealand, from Matamata in the North Island, to Wellington, to Nelson in the South Island. It was also filmed in Canterbury, Mackenzie County and Fiordland. There were also some scenes filmed in parts of Ireland! For the Star Wars films, they were filmed in many different countries. Episode I (1999)was mainly filmed in Leavesden Film Studio in England and Cassiobury in Watford. Some of the scenes were filmed in the Tunisian desert. It was also filmed a bit in Caserta in Italy. Some of Episode II (2001)was filmed in 20th Century Fox Studios in Australia, Tunisia again, Seville in Spain and Italy. Episode III (2005) was different. It was filmed completely in a big studio in Sydney, except for a few scenes. Episode IV (1977) was filmed mainly in Van Nuys, California, and again, the Tunisian desert. Episode V (1980) was mostly built in sets, containing bluescreens with models, and sets made on the stage floor. Episode VI (1983) was filmed partly in Yuma Desert in Arizona and Tunisia.
