Film insurance is not just a cost—it’s a critical investment.
While producers often focus on cast, crew, equipment, and locations, insurance must be included early in the budgeting process. The cost of not insuring your production properly could be far greater than the premium itself.
Why Budgeting for Insurance Matters
Most production problems come without warning. When you factor insurance into your initial budget, you protect your timeline and resources from unexpected losses.
Typical insurance costs vary depending on:
- Length of shoot
- Budget size
- Locations and travel
- Type and value of equipment
- Stunts or special effects involved
At Movie Insure, we help you forecast these costs accurately—so you’re covered without blowing your budget.
What to Include in Your Insurance Budget
- General liability
- Equipment coverage
- Workers’ compensation
- Errors and omissions
- Cast insurance
- Production delays and extra expenses
We’ll guide you through which coverages are required, which are optional, and which could save your production in a crisis.
