Production Insurance
CineVic is pleased to allow our members to opt-in to our production insurance coverage -- at a very affordable rate! Coverage includes:
• $450,000 coverage for equipment rented from CineVic
• $250,000 coverage for equipment rented from third parties
• $5,000,000 coverage for commercial general liability
Rate:
$265 for 10 consecutive days of coverage
$25 for changes to a submitted application
Restrictions:
This item is a hard cost and is not eligible to be paid with CineCredits or any equipment credit from a CineVic program.
Application Form:
Please download and complete this application form, and submit for approval to [email protected] at minimum a full week (7 days) in advance of your production. Applications submitted less than 7 days in advance of the production start date will be denied.
We encourage all CineVic members to purchase production insurance, either through us or through other providers. Some important points to keep in mind:
• Rate includes 10 days consecutive coverage (you may purchase insurance multiple times for longer shoots, reshoots, etc).
• In the event of a claim, the renter is responsible for paying a deductible up to $2,500 for equipment or $1,000 for liability.
• Equipment damage or losses totalling less than the deductible amount will not initiate an insurance claim; in these cases it is the responsibility of the renter to pay for repair or replacement.
• Some of our equipment rentals require insurance -- see individual equipment item pages for restrictions and requirements. We do not require you to purchase CineVic insurance, as long as you can provide proof of insurance from another provider.
• CineVic Member Production Insurance will only cover productions with a maximum budget of $20,000.
• If you would like to insure equipment rented from third parties, you must list these items, their replacement value, and the rental company name on your application form.
• For locations requiring commercial general liability you must list the individual or corporate landowner's full legal name and full address on your form.
• On the application form you will need to include project dates, synopsis, list of locations, rented equipment, and any other third parties who require proof of your insurance. You will also need to attach a budget (must be under $20,000).
• Any changes made after your application has been submitted (such as adding or changing a location or production dates) will incur a $25 fee per change. You are not able to make any changes to your application after production has commenced.
• Insurance coverage is not guaranteed -- your application may be denied by either CineVic or our insurance provider.
Please note there is NO coverage for:
• CineVic Members' or other filmmakers' personal owned equipment (you should have your own personal or business insurance for this).
• Stunts, automobiles, or equipment that is designed for aerial photography.
• Productions occurring outside of British Columbia.
