Is there power? What type of circuit? Is it prone to surges?
is there a backup power source?
Do we have backup bulbs?
Is the cord taped down to make sure no one trips over it?
Are the emergency exits clearly marked? Does Transpo have coffee? Did I turn off the refrigerator for sound? WHY IS CRAFTY BRINGING AROUND GRILLED CHEESE RIGHT NOW?!?!

David M. Harris - Owner
I am a Salt Lake City native, and graduate of the University of Utah. Go Utes! I have a passion for film and live events, and bringing someone elses vision to life on the screen or in person. The million piece puzzle that is locations, is something that I truly love. I thrive on the chaos of making sure every department has what they need as quickly as possible. If I have done everything right, you can catch me sitting on my tailgate with some coffee.

"Working with David made for not only an excellent experience on a recent shoot, but an excellent on-camera result. He balanced beautiful location selection with a thorough understanding of the logistical challenges that each scene would bring, and how to overcome those challenges so that we were ready to roll when the light was at its best.
Along with his expert contributions to the end result, he also brought a positive attitude, a team first mentality, and is someone that we will go to great lengths to work with in the future."

"We heard David Harris was the go-to locations guy in Utah, and that was 100% accurate. He filled my film with all the locations I needed, and always had another option available when a first choice didn't work out. Look forward to our next Utah film with him!"
- Jake Helgren, Founder + Director, The Ninth House Productions
Handing your home over to a large group of strangers who want to remove all your belongings and replace them with their own stuff while covering your yard in 3 inches of fake snow can be a daunting proposition, to say the least. However, David was there with us every step of the way, explaining all of the logistics in detail and making sure we were aware of everything that would happen before, during, and after the filming process. David's knowledge, expertise, and absolute professionalism were ultimately what led us to decide to allow our home to be used as a film location and I cannot recommend him highly enough.
