FilmIns is part of our group of patners that offers the whole breadth of entertainment insurance programs – from all-risk insurance for movies / film / TV production, concerts and productions, special events, festivals and trade shows and sporting events, to special insurance programs for show venues, weather coverage and artists’ liability.

While it is true that Barba-Arkhon.com does not offer entertainment insurance programs, it does offer insurance and risk management programs for the construction industry. And Barba-Arkhon.com is a supplementary insurance provider of FilmIns.

A typical all-risk film insurance package would protect film productions against these risks:

• damage or loss to rented filming equipment (owned and rented)
• damage or loss to sets, props, and wardrobe
• faulty and negative stock
• third party property damage
• general liability
• extra expenses
• automobile accidents, and
• workers’ compensation.

But aside from these risks, a film production would also be required to have contractors insurance to insure home construction contractors who might be required to do some back-end work on the set, or be required to construct a set. Barba-Arkhon.com fills in some gaps in Filmins’s line of insurance products by offering to producers its contractors’ insurance programs, including (a) general liability insurance, (b) workers’ compensation insurance, (c) builders risk insurance, (d) tools and equipment insurance, and (e) commercial auto insurance.

Specialty contractors that are eligible under Barba-Arkhon’s insurance programs include carpenters, plumbers, window fitters, air conditioning technicians, among others. Builders are also eligible.

While it is always wise for a film producer to make sure that his contractor has adequate insurance protection, the fact is, you can never have too much insurance in risky blue-collar occupations like the contractors’.  Film producers operate at a distinct advantage if they secure adequate insurance protection for all aspects of their film production.
