Due to new Homeland Security measures,
revised procedures for scouting and filming are in place. Please contact Jim
Fletcher, Tara Decrow, or Washington Filmworks for more information.
With advanced
notice, filming and transportation of film crews on state ferries is permitted
during regularly scheduled ferry runs. Allow four business days to process
required property use agreements and film permits. Administrative and other
fees may apply depending on the scope of your project. Washington State Ferries
(WSF) is unable to alter ferry sailing schedules. Contact WSF at the numbers
above for film permits on state ferries. You may look online (web site listed
above), call the WSF Information Center (206-464-6400), or contact Washington
Filmworks for the latest ferry schedules.
Washington
Filmworks can also provide a list of privately owned ferries, which can be
hired for filming or to transport your crew.
