Law Enforcement

Metro Orlando law enforcement agencies promise to
serve, protect and stay out of the director’s way! Determining
whether one or more officers will be necessary depends on the
impact of the production. Generally, when traffic control,
pyrotechnics or crowd control is involved, officers are required.
In addition, when production involves the use of firearms,
weapon-type props or the portrayal of a crime, officers are
required. For the purpose of this section, Orange County is used as
an example of how to hire off-duty officers to assist film
productions.
RATE SAMPLES: For Orange County, the 2009
rate for police officers is $40 per hour with a four-hour
minimum. Unless otherwise stipulated, officers must be paid
for their services at the completion of the production day.
Other cities and counties in Metro Orlando have
similar rate structures and procedures. The Film Commission will
assist in contacting each agency directly.
