Filming in Pakistan

[Joel Mielle]

Has anyone ever filmed in Pakistan or know stories about filming there? I have a potential DOP job coming up to film there and any thoughts on the conditions would be welcomed.

Filmed out there once on a drama, in Kashmir (east) and Peshawar(west). Quite full on place to work. Really depends on what and where you are filming, and how comfortable you feel if going into areas where trouble may erupt. It can sometimes be a tricky place for westerners to work. Where is the film shooting ?
