Where We Film in New York
Filming in New York
Our New York-based network serves the entire state, with dedicated local crews from the skyscrapers of Manhattan to the soundstages of Brooklyn. Because our teams are local, we handle all Governor's Office of Motion Picture & Television Development permits and logistics for you. We provide seamless multi-city coverage with teams ready in Manhattan, Queens, and The Bronx.
Venues We Film At in New York
We film at New York's premier event venues, from the iconic Jacob K. Javits Convention Center to world-class luxury hotels. Our New York crews excel at capturing high-energy conferences, product launches, and corporate events in Manhattan's most prestigious locations.
Jacob K. Javits Convention Center
Convention centre on Manhattan's Far West Side beside Hudson Yards, with more than 3.3 million sq ft in total after a $1.5 billion expansion.

Producer’s Note:
Operating in the fast-paced, vertical corporate environment of NYC requires our crews to travel incredibly light but pack heavy-duty, broadcast-quality power for quick elevator load-ins. We always deploy high-output Aputure lighting to combat unpredictable window light in high-rises and ensure your executive interviews look consistently brilliant.
Filming in New York
What to know before you shoot in New York
Filming permits and public-space rules
New York draws a clearer line than most cities, and the line is about how you use the street rather than who you are. Under the rules published by the city's film office, a permit is required if a shoot uses vehicles or equipment as the rules define them, or if it asserts exclusive use of city property. In either case, insurance is required.
Handheld cameras and tripods fall outside the definition of equipment. A two-person crew recording a vox pop outside a conference hotel with a camera on sticks does not normally need a permit, provided nobody is being moved out of the way. Add lights, a dolly, a monitor stand or a parked production vehicle and the answer changes.
Exclusive use has a specific meaning. It covers taking one or more lanes of a street or a bridge walkway, or leaving pedestrians with less than eight feet or half the width of the sidewalk, whichever is greater. The city's own example is a ten-foot sidewalk with only four feet left clear: that needs a permit, because of the space taken rather than the kit used.
If you do not need a permit but want paperwork to show a building manager or a police officer, the city offers an Optional Permit. It has no fee and needs no insurance, on the condition that you use only handheld equipment or tripods, do not assert exclusive use and do not use cars or other equipment. Those rules date from the 2000s, so confirm how they apply with the film office before a shoot.
None of this gives you any right to film inside a building or on private plazas and forecourts. Those need the permission of whoever controls the space, which on a show day is usually the organiser and the venue together.
Drone rules
Plan on no drone unless the footage justifies a long lead time. The NYPD says operators must apply for and be granted a city permit before launching or landing a drone anywhere in the five boroughs.
The FAA's rules still apply on top of this. Commercial work is flown under Part 107 by a certificated remote pilot, and controlled airspace needs prior authorisation from air traffic control. Rules can change between booking and shoot day, so check again with the NYPD and the FAA that week.
- Applications are generally due 30 days before the earliest proposed flight, through the NYPD Online Services Portal.
- Approved permits are delivered electronically 48 hours before the flight, and the city may change, postpone or cancel flights at any time.
- During the flight, the operator must hold the permit, insurance policy, proof of FAA authorisation and the FAA registration certificate for each drone.
- Flying without a permit can lead to a summons or arrest, and the drone may be seized.
The business event calendar and districts
The Far West Side is the centre of gravity for large shows, because that is where the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center sits. The year starts there with NRF: Retail's Big Show, which runs 10 to 12 January 2027, with an opening party the evening before at the Marriott Marquis in Times Square. A retail client may therefore need coverage in two very different places within 24 hours.
The New York International Automobile Show follows at Javits, with press days on 24 and 25 March 2027 and public days from 26 March to 4 April. For anyone filming a launch or an executive interview, the press days are the ones that matter, and the build deadlines fall well before them.
Dates move from year to year, so check the organiser's site before you book travel or crew.
Practical logistics
Labour is the first thing to check at Javits. The Auto Show's 2027 display rules say all labour must be ordered through the official contractor or a contractor approved by the Javits Center. They also say contractors appointed by exhibitors must be licensed, insured and authorised to work in the building, and the form for those contractors expressly includes video. Those rules are for one show and are marked as subject to change, but they show how formal the process can be. Ask early whether your camera crew has to be listed as an exhibitor-appointed contractor, and get the certificate of insurance in hand well before the deadline.
For getting there, the 7 train stops at 34th Street-Hudson Yards, about one block from the centre. The M34-SBS bus also serves it, but not the M34A-SBS, which turns at Eighth Avenue. If your event is in the north building, enter 'Javits North' as a rideshare destination, as NYC Tourism advises.
A crew travelling with cases should allow for the walk from the subway and for security at the door. If you need a vehicle, remember that parking one for production on the street can itself change the permit answer.
January shows mean winter weather for any exterior shot, so plan the outdoor material with an indoor fallback and keep it short. Confirm every rule here with the film office, the NYPD, the FAA and the show's own exhibitor manual before the shoot, since these rules change.
Rules change, so confirm them before you shoot. Sources:
