|
|
Hello all! Greetings from Canada.
We are a young couple from near Toronto who are getting married in less than a month.
For our honeymoon, we're planning to spend two weeks in Skiathos and Skopelos. We own a little film production company here, so for a bit of fun, we've decided to shoot a documentary about the filming locations used in Mama Mia. We really want to highlight the beauty of the area and the Greek culture.
The finished DVD will be sold here in Canada in wedding boutiques and wedding trade shows, aimed at other couples who might like to honeymoon in Skiathos and the area.
We're looking for a few locals to help us out! Would anyone be interested in showing us some locations used in the movie - and elsewhere on the island? We'd also like to interview a few people who were extras in the film and ask them what it was like when "Hollywood came to town".
We'll be arriving in Skiathos on Friday, July 24 and departing the evening of Sunday, July 26.
Please feel free to message me personally. We honestly can't wait to spend our honeymoon in your little paradise! |

Just to clarify my message above...
I understand that most of the filming locations are on Skopelos and we are spending a week there. We will also be visiting Damourchari for a few days. And we've found people to help us out in both those places.
We're particularly interested in finding help on Skiathos for the Skiathos locations - those in the film, and otherwise! |

The main one is when Sam and Harry arrive in the taxis and get onto Bill's boat. That is shot in the old harbour in Skiathos Town. _________________ http://www.skiathosboomerang.co.uk |

The post box where she posts the invitations is up by the clock tower. Like most of the props in the film, the post box was removed afterwards. ... _________________
