Rental Policies Summary

*Please consult the Jumby Bay Studios Rate Card PDF for extensive details, legalese, and insurance requirements. What is listed on our website is a summary of our policies.

We operate on a 10-hour day

A standard studio booking is 8am - 6pm CST. We are more than happy to accomodate shooting schedules and times outside of these 10 hours. In certain instances, overtime fees may apply.

Overtime is applied to personnel only

We only charge overtime for personnel (studio manager). Overtime is 1.5 times the regular rate.

On weekends, holidays, and times outside of our normal working day, we require that a Jumby Bay Studios staff member be present in the building for insurance and security reasons. This staff member will act as a studio manager.

Double time applies on Sundays and Federal Holidays.

Cancellations

Scheduled time that is cancelled within 24 hours will carry a 100% penalty.

Payment terms

Unless other arrangements have been made, all studio rentals must be paid in the following manner:

We accept all major forms of credit card.

Bringing in outside rental equipment

Becaused our building was built as a production facility and not a converted warehouse, it's easy to bring in any equipment you may need.

However, please make note of our policy regarding this: All lighting, grip, and electrical equipment used in our studio must be rented from us. We understand that our list of equipment may not satisfy your needs, so please feel free to bring in any and all equipment that we do not have available for rent.

If you use any lights that are not rented from Jumby Bay Studios, you will be subject to an electricity fee of $40/day or $20/half-day.
