On Ground Filming Conduct

Filming on the ground requires autonomy and responsibility. Everyone has their own tasks, but the entire crew shares the same goal of capturing great stories and representing the production company with professionalism.

1

Take Care of Yourself

Filming can be demanding, so make sure you eat well, stay hydrated and rest when possible. A clear mind and steady energy always reflect in your work. Keep some snacks or water with you, especially during long or outdoor shoots.

2

Check Your Gear

Before leaving for location, inspect all your equipment including cameras, lenses, batteries, memory cards, lights and cables. Confirm that everything works and is packed. Report any missing or faulty gear early so it can be replaced or repaired before filming starts.

3

Focus on Deliverables but Stay Creative

Stick to the agreed deliverables from the call sheet and contract, but feel free to capture extra shots, reactions or interesting moments that could improve the story. Production teams value creativity as long as the main objectives are achieved.

4

Be Helpful and Look Out for Each Other

Filming is a team effort. Support your teammates, offer a hand when needed and communicate clearly throughout the day. Check in with others to make sure everyone is safe, comfortable and focused.

5

Record Behind The Scenes

Always record behind the scenes content. This helps the production company build trust with clients and promotes your talent to the world. BTS footage is proof of your participation and professionalism on every project.
