Insurance for Commercial Film Producers
From poor lighting to continuity errors. As a commercial film producer you can be held liable if things are not quite as your client expects. Whether you have followed the brief or not.
In most cases you will be required to hold professional indemnity as a contractual requirement with your clients. If not, it can offer you peace of mind and be extremely valuable if things don’t quite go to plan.
At Whinney Insurance Brokers we have 6 years experience insuring commercial film producers. Most importantly we can organise you insurance that’s right for you. We only work with specialist insurers whom provide professional indemnity insurance tailored for commercial film producers.
Your insurance will therefore include extensions such as cover for unintentional breach of a contract, with specific coverage for APA contracts for the production of commercials.
