Location Shooting
Location shooting is the shooting of a film or television production in a real-world setting rather than a sound stage or backlot. The location may be interior or exterior. When filmmaking professionals refer to shooting "on location", they are usually referring to a "practical location", which is any location that already exists in the real world. The filming location may be the same in which the story is set (for example, scenes in the film ''The Interpreter (2005 film), The Interpreter'' were set and shot inside the Headquarters of the United Nations, United Nations Headquarters in Manhattan), or it may stand in for a different locale (the films ''Amadeus (film), Amadeus'' and ''The Illusionist (2006 film), The Illusionist'' were primarily set in Vienna, but were filmed in Prague). Location shooting includes any practical location which resembles the location of a scene in the script; for example, students in the USC School of Cinematic Arts, film school of the University of ...

Knut Lambert
Knut ( Norwegian and Swedish), Knud ( Danish), or Knútur ( Icelandic) is a Scandinavian and German first name, of which the anglicised form is Canute. In Germany both "Knut" and "Knud" are used.
