1. FAVA provides insurance for FAVA’s rental equipment. To help cover a portion of the costs we charge a small fee based on the rental amount.
2. Comprehensive & General Liability insurance may be available upon request for a fee of $50
3. Insurance becomes void if equipment is left unsupervised, used in an unsafe manner or in conflict with the laws of Alberta.
4. Insurance becomes void if equipment is used in a moving vehicle (land, water, air) or from a height of 15m or greater.
5. If a claim is needed, the deductible is $2500 to be paid by the renting member.

Further insurance policy information is available upon advance request.

• Associate Members – 4% of rental invoice amount
• General Members – 2% of rental invoice amount
• Producer/Lifetime Members – 1% of rental invoice amount, general liability no charge

A major benefit of being a FAVA member is having access to our general & liability insurance.  Here’s how it works:

1. You have your shoot dates and location scouted and now you need the paper work to gain access to the location. At least 2 – 3 weeks in advance, go to FAVA’s website and download the insurance application form at the bottom of this page
2. Fill out the insurance application form
3. Email the application form along with a separate budget and a separate film synopsis to membership@fava.ca
4. Call 780-429-1671 to confirm receipt of the insurance application form

At this time, FAVA will review your application package to be sure we can move forward with supporting it.  Once we have given it the OK, we’ll pass it along to our insurance contact to let them know that you and your project are eligible.  We will then send you an email asking you to connect with them directly to finalize the insurance.

If you are unable to send in your application form 2 – 3 weeks in advance, give us a call at the office and we’ll do our best to help make it happen.
