UK production insurance for shoots organised from overseas

Moonshine can help eligible productions access cover through our production insurance arrangements, working with Performance Insurance.

This service is particularly useful for international production companies that are not domiciled in the UK and need local production support, alongside our UK fixer services and film equipment hire.

Pricing

Insurance premium

Applicable

+ Handling fee

25% of the premium or £100, whichever is higher

= Your cost

Premium plus handling fee

The cost comprises the applicable insurance premium plus a handling fee of 25% of the premium or £100, whichever is higher. This reflects the administration involved and Moonshine’s responsibilities as policyholder.

All cover is subject to insurer approval, policy terms, exclusions and excesses. The client is responsible for the applicable policy excess and any costs not covered by the policy, as set out in the production agreement.

Client testimonials

I came to London from NY to film a small project, I contacted moonshine for equipment rental and they also provided some of the crew, they literally made my production work much better and helped me a lot to make this project happen!

Already looking forward to coming back to London and work with them again.

Kim Shapiro - Producer

Last minute, I needed a full camera crew to shoot David Guetta in Cannes for a promo tied to the new Sonic the Hedgehog 3 movie. The Moonshiners absolutely came through. 

They sourced all the kit I needed, including the DJI Ronin 4D and a full lighting setup, and supplied a brilliant DOP, 1st AC, and Gaffer. The team travelled to Cannes in their unit van, and the shoot went without a hitch.

I highly recommend them to producers and agencies, not just because of how practical and professional they are, but because they’re genuinely great people to work with.

Jamie Newton - Executive Producer

I hired these guys for a TVC, and they were professional, communicative and managed their department seamlessly so I knew I had nothing to worry about.
