Coverage guide · Recording, Editing & Post-Production Studios
Running a studio, not just a single shoot?
Recording studios, editing bays, and pre/post-production facilities have ongoing operational risk that a per-project production policy isn’t built to cover — this program is built around the facility itself.
Does a recording or editing studio need its own insurance policy?
Yes — studio operations carry ongoing risk (equipment, clients on-premises, day-to-day operations) that a single-project production policy doesn’t address.
This program offers annual plans designed for a wide range of studio operations, rather than coverage scoped to one specific shoot or project.
What kinds of facilities does this cover?
Recording studios, editing suites, and pre/post-production facilities handling ongoing client work rather than a single production.
If your studio also produces its own original content periodically, you may need both this facility-level coverage and a separate production policy for those projects.
How is this different from an equipment floater?
Studio insurance covers the facility and its operations broadly; an equipment floater is narrower, insuring specific gear on a stand-alone basis.
A studio may carry both: broader operational coverage for the facility, plus an equipment floater for particularly valuable gear that moves between locations.
