As of January 2021, Washington State is in a two-phased regional reopening plan called Healthy Washington–Roadmap to Recovery. You can check the status of each region here.

Currently, the motion picture industry is allowed to resume safe operations in all regions of the state. All productions must comply with the state’s set safety requirements as listed in the Motion Picture Production COVID-19 Requirements that was approved by the Governor’s Office and the Washington State Department of Health.

Check out our COVID Production Resource Page. This page will serve as a resource hub for filmmakers and includes information about sourcing personal protective equipment, signage, safety videos, and toolkits.

Please also take a look at our other COVID resource page—there are guides on how to apply for unemployment and navigate federal relief through the Small Business Administration, as well as additional resources for film and other creative industries.

As we all know, the COVID-19 pandemic is a constantly evolving situation. We encourage you to check our COVID-19 resource pages frequently as we will publish updates as we get them.
