The Film Office and Traffic Operations work very hard to make sure film signage is installed on time and without error, however issues can arise from time to time. In order to make sure that productions are guaranteed to get what they need, we ask that the following guidelines are followed when checking signage.
1) Signage must be checked 24 hours (by noon) prior to the shoot date. Example: check signage by 12:00 noon on Wednesday, for filming taking place on Thursday.
2) If filming on a Saturday, Sunday, or holiday, please check all signage by no later than 12:00 noon on the Friday prior.
If there are any missing or erroneous signs, please be sure to contact your liaison right away, or call the main film office line at 604.257.8840. If given appropriate notice of an issue, the Film Office can work with Traffic Operations on a solution.
Please note:
Productions cannot contract out for or create their own signage. Productions are permitted to cone off their designated approved parking areas (must have permits on set with them), however without signage, any coned off areas are not enforceable. Any unofficial signage that is not created and installed by City of Vancouver will be removed and remain unenforced.
