Insurance


Dunav Insurance Company

Accident Insurance for individuals involved in the production of motion pictures:

The Dunav Insurance Company offers accident insurance to all individuals involved in the production of motion pictures. This type of insurance covers complete disability as well as accidental death. In case of injuries sustained during film production, the company will disburse the insured amount, expressed as a percentage, according to the severity of the injury. The sum insured shall be set by the client, dependent on the client’s assessment of identified needs.

Insurance of portable equipment, apparatus and instruments:


Since clients often request insurance for specific equipment or apparatus used in film production, the Dunav Insurance Company offers insurance for single pieces of equipment (cameras, sound equipment, lighting etc.) used at the production site, in the studio, and during transfer between locations. The insurance covers fire, lightning, explosions, storms, hail, damage sustained during an automobile accident, airplane accidents, demonstrations, floods, landslides, avalanche, water damage, theft, and equipment failure sustained during production.

Insurance of film, film equipment, props and film project participants:

The Dunav Insurance Company offers insurance for the protection of property, persons and liabilities connected to the making of films, series, commercials and other types of film production.

The company also offers insurance for any unforeseen interruptions during film production. This includes the temporary or permanent absence of a director, actors or other participants, damage to or destruction of buildings, props, costumes, and equipment for image or sound recording, etc. The insurance also covers the recording of film negatives or positives (as part of the process of their production or as finished products), film apparatus and equipment, and filming and other props used for recording. This insurance product also covers losses occurred as the result of operations and activities of film recording and ownership of effects which may transpire as a result of death, bodily injury or impairment of health and damage to or destruction of the effects of the third parties.

In addition to the aforementioned options, accident insurance is available to all individuals participating in a specific film production project.

Since the film production process can vary widely, the Dunav Insurance Company is prepared to consider insurance options for an array of productions. The company will work closely with clients to ensure their insurance needs are fully met.
