Specific features to note with film shooting insurance

Whatever the type of filming envisaged, whether it is a short, a feature film, a work of fiction, a documentary or even animation, it is important to tailor your insurance to cover your production style.
The elements that go into pricing insurance are the location of the shoot, the presence of scenes considered dangerous or acrobatic, shooting in high mountains and so on.

The choice of desired coverage

• Public liability: this covers the financial consequences of damage that the production could cause to others, including extras.

• All-risk damage: this covers theft, fire and all accidental damage to the equipment used for filming, whether or not you own it.
