Production Safety Built for Set
We provide practical safety advisory and risk assessment for film and television—supporting both studio and location productions.
Based in Los Angeles and working globally, we partner with producers and department heads to identify risks early, implement effective controls, and maintain compliance without slowing production.
Our approach is simple: clear communication and practical, adaptable solutions that protect cast and crew while keeping production on track.
Production-Focused Support
Targeted safety services designed for the realities of production.
Written Safety Programs
Development of production-ready safety programs, including IIPP, EAP, ERT, and HIPP documentation tailored to your production's specific needs. Designed to meet local, state, and federal requirements while remaining scalable for all size productions.
High-Risk Sequence Oversight
On-site mitigation during prep and principal photography to manage evolving risks, coordinate with department heads, and ensure controls are implemented in real time- on sound stages and in remote, public, or logistically complex environments.
Script Breakdowns
Early-stage safety analysis of scripts to flag environmental risks and operational challenges. We provide practical mitigation strategies and planning input long before cameras roll.
Construction Hazard Audits
Focused collaboration with construction and operations to ensure safety measures align with applicable local, state, and federal safety regulations.
