Film Shoots on Campus
To shoot in Film/Video spaces, please fill out the appropriate formstack and submit it. To shoot in other campus areas, complete an event checklist and collect the corresponding signatures (see below). The signed event checklist should be delivered to the Mailroom at least 48 hours before the filming begins. The Mailroom won’t accept an event checklist for filming that doesn’t have Justin’s signature. The Mailroom keeps the master calendar and as CalArts gets busier in the spring, these procedures are necessary to ensure projects are not doubling up in spaces or areas, including exteriors.
The event checklist is available on here, in the Film/Video office, in the Mailroom, or by emailing Justin Hogan (justinhogan@calarts.edu).
School-Specific Spaces
Signatures needed from the School and Justin Hogan in F/V’s Production Services. Deliver to Mailroom staff for final approval.
Hallways, Exteriors and/or Spaces managed by the Institute (not a specific School)
Signature needed from Justin Hogan in Production Services. Deliver to Mailroom for schedule, Facilities signature and final approval.
Dorms, Pool or Pool Area
Signature needed from Justin Hogan, Head of Production Services, and Residence Life office. (Additional form must be filed with Res Life.) Deliver to Mailroom staff for final approval.
