Filming

We consider all requests for filming (movie, television, or commercial, etc.) or photography. 

​

• 1. Permission.

  Permission to film or photograph in Perryville is granted subject to certain conditions and use. Permission can be obtained only from the City of Perryville.

  Please note that a Location Agreement must accompany all projects. Please also note that the City of Perryville reserves the absolute right to grant or deny permission to shoot and to determine the terms under which shooting will be permitted.

•  2. Location Fees.

  Location fees are set by the City of Perryville depending upon a variety of factors, such as the nature and purpose of the project, its intended market, its potential promotional value to the City of Perryville, the potential disruption to residents and the extent to which the City of Perryville is required to support the project.

  Please contact Trish at 573-517-2069 or via email at trish@perryvillemo.com to discuss all fees.

• 3. Advance Notice.

  At least two weeks advance notice is requested whenever possible. While the City of Perryville will make every effort to accommodate LAST-MINUTE requests to shoot, requests with less than 24-hour notice will not necessarily be granted.

• 4. Scheduling.

  Commercial filming is generally permitted not on busy streets during public events.

• 5. Impact on the Residents.

  If at any time the production company’s activities threaten to disrupt the residents or experiences of its residents or pose a safety hazard to residents, the City of Perryville reserves the right to require the company to reschedule or halt its activities. As well, the company will be required to make any changes or to discontinue filming, if the City of Perryville determines that life is being endangered or the potential for damage exists.

• 6. Script Review.

  The City of Perryville reserves the right to review scripts for all scenes involving the use of the name Perryville and its image.

• 7. Location Tours.

  At this time, all shooting locations, access, and parking needs must be addressed and agreed upon. Location tours can be provided to the production company with advance notice by telephone.

  Any behind-the-scenes shooting must be agreed upon during the location tour or prior to the shoot date. The size of the crew and the amount of equipment must be agreed upon prior to the tour date.

• 8. Lighting and Electrical Needs.

  Power supplies are limited in certain areas. Power needs must be directed to the local utility department in advance of any shoot. This may be addressed at the time of the location tour.

  Lighting restrictions may also apply to certain areas, but in most areas, additional lighting is allowed.

  Any sets brought or built on public property must be approved ahead of time. Nothing may be attached to walls, poles, or other structures without permission.  If you bring it, take it with you.
