Filming Locations in Barcelona
Finding the Right Locations for Your Story
Barcelona's compact geography means you can shoot completely different looks in a single day. The Gothic Quarter, Barceloneta, and the 22@ tech district are all within 20 minutes of each other. The challenge is knowing which locations need permits, which are restricted entirely, and how to sequence a multi-location day so it actually works.
We've been scouting locations across Barcelona since 2008. We know which spots are viable for your brief, what the permit timeline looks like for each, and how to avoid the tourist bottlenecks that kill schedules.

15+ Years Building Relationships with Global Brands
Here's what happens when international production companies work with us in Barcelona. These are real comments from clients who've filmed with us - from quick one-day shoots to complex multi-location productions.
I’ve worked with Markus over a variety of video production projects over many years, including medical educational, live streaming and multicamera shoots. Whether it was Barcelona, Madrid, Valencia or Lisbon, his services have always been well organised and helpful, with great results every time.
Jon Birch
Head of Video and News, ecancer
I have been working with Markus and Camera Crew Spain for many years, and he is our go-to professional whenever we are in Spain. Markus is always dependable, providing top-notch crews equipped with the latest cameras and gear. No matter the shooting requirements, he consistently delivers exceptional results. While many crews possess the experience, equipment, and expertise, there are only a few I truly enjoy spending a week with – and Markus is undoubtedly one of them. Highly recommended!
Mike Wood
Director, Producer, and Filmmaker, inEvidence
Markus Ruf served as my local producer on a 90 minute, prime-time special about Barcelona which I directed for Canal Plus in France. This was not your run-of-the-mill documentary; it involved the hiring of actors, extras, props, special effects, costumes, and numerous long shooting days with multiple locations. Through it all Markus and his team at Camera Crew Spain handled it all with calm professionalism and a ‘can-do’ spirit. He supplied me with top researchers, camera operators, and sound engineers who could function in any language I needed – in my case English and French. I cannot recommend Makus and Camera Crew Spain highly enough. I make programs all over the world and know how difficult it is to find top quality production services on location. Markus Ruf is someone you can definitely trust to get the job done – and somehow he always does it with enthusiasm and a smile.
Peter Stuart
Director, Canal +, France

Jordan deBree
Director & Creative, Heist - San Francisco USA
I was lucky enough to work with Markus in a big production in Spain last month. His work ethic, professionalism and personality are truly incredible. In only one week, he was able to organize a crew with talented people and make everything happen in the smoothest way possible. I was told Markus had a special “aura” and this is absolutely true. It has been a privilege for me working with him and I really hope there will be other opportunities in the near future.
