New Film Service Makes District Landmarks More Accessible

Few cities have as many landmarks as Washington, DC. The White House, the US Capitol and the Lincoln Memorial immediately establish its identity on screen. Yet there are a growing number of individual homes and businesses in Anacostia, Adams Morgan, Georgetown and Shaw that are fast becoming recognizable locations in television shows like The West Wing, K Street, and The District and feature films such as Minority Report, Legally Blonde 2 and The Recruit.

You too can have your home or business serve as the backdrop in a commercial, documentary or feature film. Simply register your property and submit photographs for inclusion in the Celluloid City Directory. The Celluloid City Directory is part of a new location service available to film and television producers that features homes and businesses within the District’s eight wards. Producers will soon be able to search for new properties by neighborhood and special features through the directory, database and photo file system.
