THE HUDSON-ATHENS LIGHTHOUSE, HUDSON RIVER, NEW YORK, US

Of the dozens of lighthouses that could once be found on the shores of the Hudson River, only seven remain. The Statue of Liberty in New York Harbor is the eighth, at the mouth of the river. The Hudson-Athens Lighthouse, which is also known as the Hudson City Light, lies between the city of Hudson and the town of Athens on opposing banks. The area is lm-friendly, with competitive prices and numerous under-used locations.

A famous studio lm to shoot in Hudson was Nobody's Fool (1994), with Paul Newman. In Athens the most well-known shoot was for War of the Worlds (2005). Recent lms and TV shows that shot in the Hudson Valley include: A Quiet Place (2020); HBO's I Know This Much Is True (2020); and the upcoming White House Plumbers (2023).

THE RIVER NERVION, PORT OF BILBAO, SPAIN

The River Nervión runs through Bilbao on its course to the Bay of Biscay in northern Spain. This spot in Erandio, a town on the river north of Bilbao, is between the historic Vizcaya Bridge 4.5 km away, built in 1893 and declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, and the Guggenheim Museum, 6 km in the other direction, a symbol of the modernity of Bilbao. On the left bank are the historic shipyards and the right bank features the architecture of a modern city.

This river has been a location for many productions over the years, including: short movie La Caída del Vencejo (2021); and music video Soldadito Marinero (2004) by Fito & Fitipaldis.
