Location Shoot Security: Base Camp, Trucks and Overnight

- Base camp and crew parking security
- Overnight watch of grip trucks, generators and gear

Production Security Plan
We review call sheets, locations and permit conditions with your location manager and set posts for each shooting day.
Flexible Scheduling
Shoots run long and change often. We adjust coverage for early calls, overtime and last-minute location changes.
NDAs and Discretion
Officers sign NDAs, stay off social media and keep storylines, cast and locations private.

For high-profile talent, our bodyguard team provides close protection, and our event security team covers premieres and wrap parties.
Licensed, Trained and Insured Production Security
Every Sharp Guard Group officer holds an active California BSIS guard card, has passed a Live Scan background check and works under our Private Patrol Operator license PPO #18098. Armed officers also hold BSIS firearm permits. Officers are briefed on your call sheet, closed-set rules and site safety before each shoot. We carry general liability insurance and can send a certificate of insurance on request. Sharp Guard Group has served Los Angeles since 2015.
