The second option is to work in a set designed to look like a true junk or salvage yard. In places where movies are frequently produced, companies have created sets for prop-rich scenes like junkyards,
hospitals, and prisons. In a junkyard set for filming, you'll have a selection of cars; not as many as a true junkyard but enough for you to capture multiple angles without overlap.
Junkyard sets are also far easier to book. Once you've chosen the right set, you can be filming the next day if there's availability. You may even be able to book by the hour, making it a more flexible option for short films and photography set in a junkyard. Whether you're filming a documentary, horror film, or mystery movie, a junkyard set is the best place to begin production!
