1THE CITY OF FILM

Rome, one of the world’s most beautiful capitals, the city with the highest concentration of cultural heritage on the planet, is also home to another city. A city whose

name is known all over the world, and is one of the most used and universal Italian words, on a par with ‘Opera’, ‘Ferrari’, and ‘Chianti’. The word ‘Cinecittà’ cannot be translated, and wherever you are it means the same thing: Cinema. Cinecittà is not only a legendary name. To this day, it is one of the leading players in the European film industry involved in the complete production of films, documenta-ries, tv series, commercials and music videos. From pre to post, from special effects to distribution and promo-tion, Luce Cinecittà is a one stop shop for any audiovi-sual project, from idea… to movie!

The studios are located just outside the centre of Rome, covering an area of over 100 acres.Their strategic location, just 30 minutes drive from the airport and 20 minutes by subway from Rome’s central sta-tion, makes them extremely easy to reach.Their central location, together with the plus that they can host the entire creative and production cycle for an audio-visual production, has made Luce Cinecittà studios the ideal location for the production of several multi-award-winning films, such as The Postman, Life is Beauti-ful, Ocean’s Twelve, To Rome With Love, Mission: Impossible - 3, Angels and Demons, Ben Hur, and Gangs of New York.

Tax Credits for 30%, equal to €20 million a year per company

2 ALL THE ADVANTAGES OF TAX CREDITS

The new Film Law has strengthened the Tax Credit mechanism. Executive production and post-produc-tion companies can now get tax credits for 30% of

75% of costs incurred in Italy, for a maximum annual tax credit of €20 million per company.

The new Tax Credit rules also introduce new categories of beneficiaries (e.g. video game production companies and film exhibitors) and credit rates of over 30% for certain categories (e.g. independent producers that distribute their own films).

3 FILM PRODUCTION FACILITIES

Sound stagesLuce Cinecittà currently has 19 permanent sound stages for audiovisual productions, with a wide array of shapes and size, all soundproof, air conditioned and with power-ful and safe energy systems, overhead grids, walkways and waterproof trapdoors to accommodate all kinds of stage effects.

The different size sound stages mean the studios can satis-fy the needs of not only big film productions, but television and commercial productions, as well.Renting one of the sound stages comes with added services: they all come with a series of adjacent spaces comprising a total of 300 dressing rooms and offices, 21 make-up stu-dios, and 82 prop rooms, storage rooms and art depart-ment workshops. These spaces give productions the ideal logistical base for organizing staff.No matter what your production’s needs are, we at Luce Ci-necittà studios can satisfy them.Furthermore, there are local independent companies near-by that hire out technical equipment (e.g. Panalight) and provide special digital and mechanical effects services (e.g. Makinarium).

Tensile structuresTo keep up with the increasing demand for production spaces, we have also built 2 tensostatic structures for host-ing television productions, meetings, conventions, and spe-cial events.

Swimming poolTucked away in the middle of Cinecittà’s park is an outdoorswimming pool that can be used for filming. It is 75,000ft2, 7ft deep, can hold 45,000ft3 of water. It sits in front of a green backdrop measuring 260ft in width and 65ft in height.Here you can dress sets and film underwater.

Sound stages under constructionTo meet the growing demand for new and bigger audiovi-sual production facilities, Luce Cinecittà is developing two state-of-the-art sound stages each measuring over 34,000ft2 which will increase the total space available for production to 280,000 ft2 Luce Cinecittà is also rebuilding its historic 9,000ft2 Sound Stage 7, which is supposed to host a tank for underwater filming.

4SET CONSTRUCTION DEPARTMENT

Luce Cinecittà’s world-famous set construction depart-ment creates extraordinary sets at competitive prices.Some of our most famous works include the fantastical

sets from Baron Munchausen, the 1930s New York set from Once Upon a Time in America and the mid-19th - century set of Gangs of New York, the German U-boat in U-571, the days of the Roman Republic recreated for HBO’s Rome, and the set of Jerusalem for Mel Gibson’s The Passion of the Christ.Some of these sets have earned themselves a permanent place at the studios, like Ancient Rome and 15th - century Florence, which are often redressed and used for new film productions.Set design and construction for film is one of Cinecittà’s strong points, thanks to its professionals’ in-depth knowl-edge of materials, the use of the latest digital technologies, and regular and sizeable investments.
