S2 Ep.2 – “Screen tourism could be a game changer for the industry”

The rapid growth of the audiovisual sector has significantly boosted the potential of screen tourism, making it an increasingly valuable segment of the tourism industry. In Spain alone, screen tourism influences 4 in 10 travelers.This perspective is shared by Ana Alonso, a consultant specializing in screen tourism and founder of The Travelling Set, a project dedicated to collaborating with destinations and tourism companies around the power of film and TV locations.In this episode of “Filming in Portugal: See the Big Picture”, Ana Alonso is joined by Daniel Louro — first and foremost a cinephile, but also a podcaster and creator of The World is a Set, an online project showcasing locations where films and series were shot.Having traveled extensively and admitting to being “a little obsessed with locations,” Daniel highlights the example of Crema, the Italian city that was transformed after serving as the backdrop for Call Me by Your Name.More information on filming in Portugal and episode transcripts available here.
