Protecting Your Creative Vision from Script to Screen
While every film or video project is creatively brilliant — it also presents risks in the real world. Production can be very expensive, and without protection from equipment damages or injuries to other crewmembers, it can become drastically more expensive with delays on your schedule.
We offer Film & Video Production Insurance specifically for production companies, videographers, studios & media professionals in California.
From Business Owner’s Policy (BOP) to General Liability Insurance and Workers’ Compensation, we ensure your production stays protected — on set or off.

Business Owner’s Policy (BOP): Comprehensive Coverage for Production Companies
A Business Owner’s Policy (BOP) is the perfect insurance bundle for small to medium-sized production companies. It combines essential protections — like General Liability and Property Insurance — into one affordable package.
Here’s what a BOP includes:
🧾 General Liability Coverage – Protects against lawsuits for third-party injuries, property damage, or advertising claims.
🎥 Commercial Property Insurance – Covers your production equipment, sets, editing suites, and studio property.
💰 Business Interruption Coverage – Compensates for lost income if production halts due to fire, theft, or covered incidents.
General Liability Insurance: Your Set’s Safety Net
Accidents can happen — a light stand falls and injures someone, or a lens damages a rented property. General Liability Insurance covers your production company against these everyday risks.
It’s the foundation of your protection plan and a requirement for many filming permits and contracts.
General Liability Coverage Includes:
Bodily injury or property damage to third parties
Legal defense costs and settlements
Personal and advertising injury (libel, slander, copyright claims)
Even one claim can cost thousands — but with General Liability coverage from Media Business Insurance, you’ll have peace of mind knowing your business is safe.
