Why Film Shooting Safety in China Matters
Filming in China offers unparalleled opportunities, from bustling urban landscapes in Shanghai to serene rural settings in Yunnan. However, navigating safety regulations, permits, and on-set protocols requires local expertise. At Shoot in China, we’ve completed over 1,600 projects with a flawless safety record, ensuring seamless productions for international clients.
Key Safety Considerations for Filming in China
1. Permits & Legal Compliance: Every region—whether Beijing, Chengdu, or Shenzhen—has unique permit requirements. Our bilingual team handles applications for public space usage, drone operations, and cultural heritage sites.
2. Equipment & Crew Safety: We provide certified gear from Arri, Sony, and Canon, alongside licensed drone pilots. Rigorous checks ensure lighting setups and stunts adhere to international standards.
3. Location Risk Assessment: From Hong Kong’s skyscrapers to Chongqing’s mountainous terrain, we scout locations with safety as a priority, addressing accessibility and emergency protocols.
