Don't think so. I've only been working on this project for a couple
months. It is possible I may have asked about insurance for equipment
protection....OK I think I did. This is more for the content of the
film not protecting gear.

Thanks very much for your input. Don't worry, I won't rely soley on
newsgroup input soley to make decisions in this regard. I have a
meeting with a local "Lawyers for the Arts" clinic. I assume I'll hire
an attorney at some point after that.
The IDA (International Documentary Association) also has insurance
offered to members. It is "Errors and Omissions" coverage. I was under
the impression that this is a kind of general business coverage but do
not know.
I am still poking around to get an idea of the scope of the doc....I
will be in the research stage for a few months most likely.
Thanks very much for your input, Steve. If anyone else has input, I'll
be happy to listen. Especially brokers to talk to when the time comes.
