Local 600 Drone Operators in Salt Lake City

Local 600 and non-union crews available. Studio-approved paperwork.

Utah Film Studios in Park City anchors union scripted work, and Sundance brings an annual surge of production into the valley. We crew Local 600 for the shows that require it.

CineDrones supplies Local 600 crews for union productions and non-union crews where the show allows it. We know how the aerial unit fits into the camera department on a union call sheet, how the day is accounted for, and what production accounting needs from us. It is the least glamorous part of the job and the part that most often decides whether a vendor gets hired twice.

Crewing in Salt Lake City

Utah's crew base concentrates around Park City and the valley, and Sundance creates an annual crunch where everything books at once. Outside that window, availability here is better than most markets.

The Salt Lake City production market

Utah Film Studios in Park City anchors a market that runs on features, series and a heavy commercial slate drawn by the landscape. Sundance brings its own annual surge.

We shoot the Wasatch range, the salt flats, the canyons, and the valley — and we travel. CineDrones works nationwide, so if your production is basing in Salt Lake City and shooting somewhere else entirely, that is a normal week for us.

What a Salt Lake City booking includes

  • Local 600 crews for union productions
  • Non-union crews where the agreement allows
  • Aerial unit slotted into the camera department properly
  • Paperwork production accounting will accept
  • Studio-approved safety documentation

The same toolkit on union and non-union days — the crewing changes, the capability does not.

Local 600 Drone Operators in Salt Lake City — questions we get

Are your Salt Lake City drone crews Local 600?

We supply Local 600 crews for productions that require them and non-union crews where the show allows. You do not need to source two vendors to cover both cases.

How does the aerial unit fit on a union call sheet?

As part of the camera department, with the classifications and accounting your UPM expects. It is the least interesting part of the job and the part that most often decides whether a vendor gets a second call.

Can you work a mixed show?

Yes. Plenty of productions run union principal photography and non-union second unit or promo work. We staff to whatever the specific day requires.
