PRODUCTION APPROVAL PROCESS

Every project made for a Screen Arts or Film Studies class or a Screen Arts or Film Studies Co-Curricular must be approved by your Professor and Production Operations. Any project done without approval will be considered in violation of our policies and will be referred to the Office of Community Standards.

 

You must fill out a PRODUCTION PROJECT APPROVAL FORM for each project you make for your course.

​

Do not assume that because you have been approved for one project you are approved for all projects you make in that class. Each project is a separate entity and must be evaluated as such.

 

TWO WEEKS PRIOR TO PRODUCTION OF YOUR PROJECT SUBMIT THE FOLLOWING ITEMS TO THE STUDENT PRODUCTION OFFICE, peppspo@pepperdine.edu

  1. Completed Production Project Approval Form

  2. Copy of Professor vetted script and/or storyboard

  3. Signed Location Agreement(s): If you plan to shoot on campus, make sure you complete the on-campus location agreement (See on campus locations section). If you plan to shoot off campus, make sure you complete the off-campus location agreement and get all of the necessary city permits (See off campus locations section).

  4. COI request(s) (If needed)

  5. Talent Release(s) (If needed)

​

Once Production Operations has reviewed your project, you will be given a checklist of any additional documentation necessary for a “Green Light.”

​

You will be able to reserve equipment without having been approved, but you will not be able to checkout equipment or begin shooting until you have final approval from Production Operations.
