Where We Film in Seattle
Filming in Seattle
Our Seattle-based video crew serves the entire Puget Sound region, from the tech hubs in South Lake Union to events at the Seattle Convention Center (Arch & Summit).

We also provide seamless coverage for multi-city projects, with teams ready in Vancouver and Victoria.
Venues We Film At in Seattle
We film at Seattle's premier venues, from the innovative Seattle Convention Center with its Summit and Arch buildings (998,000 sqft) to waterfront venues and luxury hotels with Puget Sound views. Our Seattle crews specialize in capturing tech summits, international conferences, and high-profile corporate events.

Producer’s Note:
Serving the massive tech and aerospace hubs of the Emerald City requires our local crews to always carry robust weather-sealed gear for the famously rainy Pacific Northwest. We deploy powerful, bi-color continuous lighting to simulate bright, natural sunlight and cut through the region's frequently overcast skies during events at the Seattle Convention Center.
Filming in Seattle
What to know before you shoot in Seattle
The Master Film Permit
Seattle's film manual is one of the more practical you will find. A permit costs $25 per day with no limit on public locations that day, plus $15 per reserved metered parking space. You need one for filming in a city park or city-owned building, interrupting traffic or pedestrians, reserving parking, or using a tripod, dolly, cables or generator on streets or sidewalks. That tripod rule catches many small event crews, so decide early whether a vox pop outside the venue will be handheld.
Lead times are tiered: at least three business days for low-impact filming, five for medium impact such as parking or traffic control, and 10 for full street closures. Standard cover is $1,000,000 of liability insurance, with the city named as additional insured.
City property only
The permit stops where city ownership stops, and many well-known backdrops are private. Pike Place Market, the Space Needle, Chihuly Garden and Glass, the Monorail, MoPOP, Pier 57 and Washington State Ferries all need direct contact with their managers. Seattle Center's exterior grounds are city property and need a film permit, but buildings there run their own permissions. Parks need a separate application for each park, so there is no blanket B-roll option.
Drones
The city's two pages do not fully match. The film manual treats drones as high-impact filming, allows them in city parks through the Master Film Permit using a 'Filming with a Drone' shoot type, and requires $2,000,000 of UAS aviation cover on top of general liability. The Special Events drone page says no drone use is allowed in city parks. Settle it in writing with the Film Permit Specialist before scheduling.
Pilots must also follow FAA Part 107, including air traffic control permission in controlled airspace.
Venues and recurring shows
The Seattle Convention Center has two buildings: Arch along Pike Street and Summit north of Pine Street. They are separate sites, so allow for moving kit between them if your event uses both, and confirm which one your sessions are in before the shoot.
Seattle's B2B calendar is spread across sites. Listings show MozCon at the convention centre on 13 November 2026, Pacific Marine Expo at Lumen Field Event Center on 19-21 November 2026, and TECHSPO Seattle at The Westin on 6-7 May 2027. Confirm dates and media rules with each organiser. Hotel and venue spaces are private, so ask for their approval too.
Rules change, so confirm them before you shoot. Sources:

Three tools your last videographer didn't have.
Most crews hand over a drive and a link. Every Fame Crew shoot runs on our own software, so you can see what is happening before the shoot, find any clip after it, and approve edits without a single email thread.
- 01
Footage Log
Every clip from the shoot, organised and labelled, with the whole log searchable - and every clip transcribed, so you can find the moment someone said the thing by typing what they said. No scrubbing through hours of rushes.
Open a sample footage log → - 02
Shoot Status
One page per shoot showing exactly where things stand: crew confirmed, brief signed off, kit list, call time, payment status. You never have to email to ask what is happening.
See a live example → - 03
Asset Review Tool
Review every edit in the browser and leave comments pinned to the exact second. No download, no version confusion, no thread of timecodes pasted into email.
Try the review tool →
All three come with every shoot. There is nothing to set up and nothing extra to pay.
