The health and safety of the general public and all client and crew is my highest priority. The following information includes modifications I’ve made to my operations, guidelines put in place for safe practices on set and reference to regulations I’ll be following established by the CDC and Washington State.
WHAT’S GOING ON IN THE STUDIO…
SPACE
We have restructured our studios to offer a social distant production where everyone is able to stay connected. In The House Studios every department has the option to spread out to their own work area with live viewing of the images being captured on set.
REMOTE CAPTURE + ART DIRECTION
Our studio is outfitted with state of the art software to allow for remote art direction and asset management capabilities.
ROUTINE SANITIZATION
Our teams will be around to routinely clean restrooms, common areas and frequently visited areas throughout the day and at the end of each day. Reserve a Wellness Assistant for your shoot that will be dedicated to your shoot for continuous sanitization for each department and every inch of the studio.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
It will be recommended that everyone bring their own face covering from home. Gloves will be distributed where appropriate. Proper use of gloves is essential for their effectiveness. Hand washing and sanitizing is the preferred
method for controlling transmission.

I'am also open to any suggestions and are interested in steps your team is taking to make for a safe production environment. My goal, as it always has been, is to work as hard and smart as possible to ensure a smooth , safe, and successful production for my clients. The above steps, along with keeping up with changing guidelines and procedures, is my way of making sure this continues while we all aim to work through this pandemic together.
