As a large living history museum, we get a lot of requests from film production companies to shoot here. Our policies and rates have not been reviewed in a number of years. I'd love to hear from colleagues about their filming experiences and to see if our rates are on par with other institutions. Do you have a sliding scale for non profits vs. for profits? A scale based on production budget size? Add on expenses (animals, vehicles, propping)? If you'd prefer to contact me outside of this forum, I can be reached at pwisbey@gcv.org. Many thanks!
