Student filming

We waive application fees for film school projects that meet the following criteria:

1. the project must be assigned by the instructor of a recognized school, and be part of the curriculum;
2. all personnel working on the project are doing so without financial compensation with the exception of industry professionals required for safety, stunts, specials effects, etc.
3. the project is for academic use only, not to be used for commercial gain; and
4. there is no impact on parking, traffic or the public without prior written consent from the City of Port Moody.
