This document summarizes a platform that connects filmmakers and photographers with potential locations for shoots. It would allow users to easily find and discuss locations, rather than relying on friends, scouts, or searching themselves. The business model would offer free listings while venues could pay for premium features like top search placement or 360-degree views. It aims to launch in a month with an initial database and contest to gain users and reach critical mass.
