Welcome to Justin Michael—Your Go-To Spot for Film Production Insurance

How It All Began

Back in 2021, I found myself knee-deep in the chaos of an indie film shoot. Picture this: a busted camera, a freaked-out director, and absolutely no idea if our insurance would cover the mess. That’s when it hit me—film production insurance is one of those topics everyone avoids until they’re in deep water. Fast forward a few months, and I realized there was so much more to unpack in this corner of the filmmaking world. From understanding policy jargon to knowing exactly what kind of coverage your crew needs, it became clear that filmmakers need resources as dynamic as their projects. So here we are today, building a space that dives into all things film production insurance, because every filmmaker deserves clarity and confidence.

Here’s Why I’m Doing This

I’m here to help you navigate the ins and outs of film production insurance with honesty, simplicity, and a touch of heart. Whether you’re producing your first short or running a full-scale feature, my goal is to make sure you’ve got the tools to protect your vision—and your team. Because let’s face it, insurance may not be glamorous, but it’s critical. And at Justin Michael, we’re making it less intimidating, one post at a time.

What Matters Here

Real Talk: If something doesn’t work (or isn’t worth it), I’ll tell you straight up. Like when I reviewed a popular policy only to find out its fine print was practically unreadable—I shared the good, the bad, and the ugly.

You First: Your stories inspire everything I do. Remember the feedback about needing step-by-step guides? That led to our most-read series breaking down complex policies into plain English.

Quality Over Hype: I don’t just skim articles and rewrite them—I dig through case studies, talk to experts, and even crunch numbers to ensure what I share is accurate and actionable.

Curiosity Rules: There’s always more to learn, and I explore the nitty-gritty details so you can focus on being creative—not stressed about coverage gaps.
