awards
At the Cannes Corporate Media & TV Awards, A TIMELESS MYSTERY received the highest award, the festival Grand Prix. A film by Pieter-Rim de Kroon. My company at the time did some locationscouting and all the locationmanaging!

It will not be the result of a lot of careertests ... locationscout. It's typical a career which you `stumble upon`.
Important is that you have a good eye, can see possiblities and have seen the work on a film / commercial set. Because it's quite a challenge to 1) find a perfect location according to the briefing 2) getting a location owner's permission to take photos of his / hers property 3) `selling` the location to the producer and / or director 4) making the location owner enthusiastic for the shoot; in / on top of / over / next to / etc. their location 5) organizing the recce and shoot in such a manner that everybody is happy and can work. Leave the location in a way that you can shoot there an other time!
It is more than just making pictures. A lot of negotiation, estimating and creative thinking is asked from a good locationscout.
