Guy Holt Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 (edited) Finally we have a glimpse of what set lighting will look like in the era of Covid-19. As active discussions continue about setting industry guidelines for a safe return to production amid the coronavirus pandemic, Film Florida has released the most comprehensive set of such recommendations yet. Put out on Thursday, April 30, the six-page document by the statewide trade association features 161 recommendations for “clean & healthy” film, TV and digital production sets. According to a recent article in Deadline Hollywood "it spells the possible end of the signature canvas director’s chairs and ubiquitous actors trailers, and the introduction of personalized mics and hairbrushes as well as clear barriers for actors on stage." In addition to general guidelines, the brochure contains detailed recommendations for each department, including grip and electric. It also includes policies for on-set protocol, handling equipment and on-set communications. Use this link to see the complete report.

AJ Young Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 I wouldn't be surprised if big productions budget and schedule more pre-rigging days to keep G&E sizes down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have a url for the Film Florida Guidelines, they were sent to me as a pdf by a friend, so I had our web designer upload it to our server and establish a link from our website. You will find the link below the links to Protocol articles I have written over the years.
