How We Make Filming Easy in Victoria
Filming In Victoria

29 May 2025
At Full Stack Films, we believe that great video production shouldn't be slowed down by red tape. Whether we're filming a brand documentary, a case study, or a video podcast, we take the stress out of filming logistics — especially when it comes to filming permits and public spaces in Victoria.
Victoria is proudly a "Film Friendly" state under the Victorian Screen Industry Code of Conduct, and we know exactly how to navigate the process to make filming easy, efficient, and stress-free for our clients.
We Know When Filming Permits Are (And Aren't) Needed
One of the biggest misconceptions about filming in Victoria is that you need a permit for everything. Good news: you don't.
If we're filming on private land or in low-impact scenarios, no permit is required. But if your project involves public land, such as parks, gardens, beaches, or council streets, we work directly with local authorities to secure the necessary approvals — fast.
We know when we can fast-track applications for low-impact shoots and when we need to submit detailed traffic management plans for larger setups. Our understanding saves you time, money, and potential headaches. Single Point of Contact — That's Us
Forget trying to coordinate with multiple councils, authorities, and government bodies. At Full Stack Films, we become your single point of contact for all filming approvals. Our Melbourne based Video Producers handle the paperwork, the risk assessments, the stakeholder notifications, and liaise with councils on your behalf — keeping you updated every step of the way.
This means you can focus on the creative, while we make sure everything behind-the-scenes runs smoothly.
Location Scouting, Permits and Production: All Under One Roof
Our full-stack approach means we manage:
Location scouting and recommendations
Filming permits for public and private spaces
Traffic and pedestrian management plans (where needed)
Public liability insurance for peace of mind
Site inductions and safety requirements
Fast, compliant filming without the delays
And because we handle everything in-house, we can adapt quickly to last-minute changes — weather, availability, you name it.
Why It Matters
Filming without the proper approvals can cause major disruptions, fines, or shutdowns. When you work with Full Stack Films, you’re not just getting great creative — you’re getting a production partner who protects your project from unnecessary risks.
Filming in Victoria should feel easy. Film in Melbourne and Victoria now! And when you're working with Full Stack Films, it is.
