# What Should Production Companies Check in Media Liability Insurance?

Production coverage addresses on-location injury, property, equipment, and crew risks; media liability addresses defined content claims.

The reviewed Hiscox form generally excludes bodily injury and property damage, while a CFC application asks about elevated work and set construction.

Describe locations, crews, equipment, and content rights to the broker. Compare media liability with general liability and production or equipment coverage, including insured parties, limits, and venue requirements.
