We’ve gotten lots of inquires about shooting video at Affiliate Summit, so we just wanted to get all of the details here for anybody interested.
Two important things: you will need insurance and either use their video crew or pay them for a “shadow” (one of their technical supervisors to monitor the filming).
The Insurance
Outside Vendors must place on file with the hotel a certificate of insurance showing a minimum of $2,000,000.00 for each occurrence. This certificate must show the following: Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino, Harrah’s Resorts & Casinos and their subsidiaries and affiliates, and each of their officers, Directors, representative and employees are named as additional insured under above policies.
Shadow or Rio Film Crew
The base rate is $80.00/hr for a shadow. 4-hour min. and overtime ($120.00) billed after 8 hours with doubletime ($160.00) billed after the 12th hour. The following rates are based on the load-in/load-out occurring between the hours of 7AM-5PM Monday-Friday. Overtime rates will apply between the hours of 5PM-11:59PM Monday-Friday and 7AM-5PM on Saturday and Sundays. Doubletime rates will apply between the hours of 12:00AM-7:00AM and after 5:00PM-7:00AM on Saturdays and Sundays, including all holidays. This position’s main responsibility is strictly as an observer to maintain hotel standards in addition to providing you with quick access for your last minute production needs. The TS will also do a walk-thru of the facility along with a Production Company’s representative and note any damage that is in the room prior to the Production Company loading in. At the conclusion of the load out the TS will do a follow-up walk-thru and note any additional damage (if any) to the facility. The Production Company will be billed for all damages to the facility.
If you’d like to outsource your filming to the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino, please contact Missy Ward for details on pricing and options.

is that 1 shadow per 1 person or could it be one shadow per room?

Hi Mark -
It’s one shadow per film crew.

would all of the bloggers combined be considered a “crew”, lol
alright, trying to pull things out of the air. Even if we were a big crew the insurance thing is pretty wild - $2,000,000.00, wow
