How To Obtain Photo & Video Location Permits | Chase Jarvis Blog

When do you need a permit?
If you are just walking around with your camera and shooting casually, you generally don’t need a permit. You will, however, need a permit if you are shooing on public property OR if your shooting will impact others and/or the environment. The threshold varies from location to location, but generally, ask yourself these questions:

  • Is this a commercial shoot?
  • Will your filming disturb traffic or pedestrians?
  • Will you need to use tripods, dollys, wires, a generator or other equipment on sidewalks or streets?
  • Are you using the public space in a special/different way than it is intended?
