Frequently Asked Questions

What does this insurance policy cover?
It covers all "Covered Property" which is defined as Production Equipment including cameras, camera equipment, sound, audio visual, lighting and grip equipment, communications equipment, portable electric equipment, editing and projection equipment, generators, mechanical effects equipment, theatrical props, sets, wardrobe, event equipment, computer equipment including desktops, laptops and monitors and any related production equipment of others that are in your care, custody or control.
Can multiple people use the same insurance?
No, only the person financially responsible for the equipment as evidenced on a rental agreement and signs up for the insurance is covered.
What makes this insurance program better than other programs out there?
First our policy covers all your school projects on a blanket basis. You can buy insurance one semester or quarter at a time so you only need to buy insurance for the term you need. Other programs only offer 12 month terms. Our program provides worldwide coverage and includes equipment rented from third parties as well as your school. Each student has their own separate limit and low deductible. Other programs may offer "shared" limits. Also, there is no "unattended vehicle" exclusion on our policy. Most comparable policies require that force of entry be shown if property is stolen from an "unattended vehicle".
Can I cover equipment rented from third parties?
Yes, equipment rented or borrowed by the school or outside vendors are included. Please make sure they have a valid Certificate of Insurance which they will need to show us in the event of a claim.
