Explore Philadelphia hospital locations for film shoots

Hospitals are some of the most iconic sets for any film. They set characters in a place that's instantly recognizable and highly immersive. The one issue with a hospital set is that it's difficult to build. Authentic looking hospital beds and machinery are difficult to source unless you have a Hollywood-sized budget! Fortunately, you can rent time in an actual hospital if you have a film that needs to be set in one. Many offer film friendly policies for movie producers. You can also book a set in a film studio that's designed to look like one. Both options have advantages to consider, so let's dive in!

Film-friendly hospitals in Philadelphia

Philadelphia is home to several hospitals that have film-friendly policies. For instance, the 1993 movie Philadelphia has a scene where a character ends up at Mount Sinai Hospital. Working in an authentic hospital means you'll have the best machines, beds, rooms, and other props to work with. You will have to sign off on legal paperwork that may restrict you to certain areas, however. The faces of staff can't be shown if they aren't a part of your film. And a police presence will likely be necessary to ensure everything is legal and runs smoothly. Film-friendly hospital rentals do take time, however. You will need to book weeks or months in advance. Once you reach out to their public relations department or management, expect a call asking for further information about your film and your organization. Be prepared to answer any possible question and provide evidence of your good intentions. From there, you'll soon be able to film in part of a Philadelphia hospital!

Hospital film set locations in Philadelphia

Hospital film sets are very different from authentic hospitals. These are spaces designed to look like a hospital but are really part of a production studio's property. They vary in size from a single room to a set thousands of square feet. The benefit of working in a hospital film set is that you don't have nearly as many legal hurdles. It's as simple as booking a studio or any other venue for filmmaking. The studio is also designed with the needs of filmmakers in mind. You'll have much better access to power outlets, areas to set up light stands, and amenities like changing rooms and computer workstations nearby. Production studio rentals also have green screens, camera gear for rent, staff to assist with your film, and other essentials to bring your movie to life!
