Production company review

1

What is a D.I.C.E. production company?

A D.I.C.E. production company produces documentary, industrial, commercial, or educational work. DICE policies can also be reviewed for music videos, short films, features, branded content, corporate video, and related production operations depending on underwriting appetite.

2

What does DICE insurance usually review?

Underwriters review the production company, production schedule, locations, equipment, cast and crew, contracts, certificate requirements, prior losses, and any specialty activity that changes the risk.

3

Is DICE only for four production types?

No. Documentary, industrial, commercial, and educational are the core categories, but DICE programs can often include more production activity when the application and operations fit carrier guidelines.

Specialty activity

When the production has more moving parts, we separate the issue.

DICE production review can include routine production-company operations and specialty activity. The goal is to present the underwriter with a file that clearly separates ordinary production work from scenes or activities needing extra attention.

Aerial Scenes

Shoots from aircraft including airplanes, helicopters, gliders, balloons and unmanned aircraft (drones). Includes scenic shots from private or commercial aircraft that do not involve aerial acrobatics or other hazardous maneuvers.

Animals

Scenes involving the use of animals, such as dogs, farm animals, household pets, and zoo animals.

Falls

Scenes involving scripted and choreographed falls.

Fight Scenes

Fight scenes that are choreographed, structured, and sequenced. These scenes may involve physical contact between actors and the use of weapons.

Precision Driving

Controlled driving on public roads, race tracks, off-road, chase scenes, skidding, collisions, explosions, and motorcycles.

Pyrotechnics

Fireworks, flashboxes, demolition, explosions, and other pyrotechnic effects.

Railroad Scenes

Non-hazardous filming activities at railroad stations, inactive tracks, service tracks or on passenger, commuter, or freight trains.

Recreational Vehicles

Use of recreational vehicles such as ATVs, go karts, mopeds, motorcycles, scooters, segways, snowmobiles, and similar vehicles.

Water Scenes

Canoes, kayaks, lake shoots, surfing, and pool scenes. Watercraft liability may require separate placement.

Weapons

Scenes involving prop guns, squibs, blanks, knives or similar weapons.

Submission package

What to send before the quote stalls.

A stronger DICE submission gives underwriting the operational story upfront. That means fewer vague follow-ups and a better chance of routing the file correctly the first time.

Application and production company details

Production schedule and location list

Equipment values, rental agreements, and transit details

Contracts, certificate requirements, and additional insured wording

Cast, crew, payroll, and workers compensation information

Loss history and specialty activity details when applicable
