film set
Where movies happen
A film set is the physical location or constructed environment where movies, television shows, or other video productions are filmed.
Sets may be built on soundstages—indoor spaces designed for controlled filming—or assembled at exterior locations.
The term encompasses everything from elaborate recreations of historical periods to simple rooms dressed with furniture and props.
The crew spent three weeks constructing the film set before shooting began.
