Hey all,
Now that I am settling into my new home in LA, I am planning a couple of spec fashion editorials. I'll be OK for getting models, MUAs, stylist, etc - have a decent network for such.
I have a couple of questions:
Question One: One of the shooting sites has, as a background, the side of a building with a giant mural on it. I know I likely need the building owner's permission - but do I need the mural artist's permission too?
Question Two: Setting up shoots (lights, model(s), assistants, props, etc.) in a public space in Los Angeles - e.g. a sidewalk or other public area - do I need a permit of any kind? When I was in Boston, I had a contact in the Mayor's Office who "lubricated" this process for me. I've been told several times that LA is very cool and helpful about this stuff, but haven't broken the ice yet. Any resources / contacts y'all could provide would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance... |
