Films at 59 Covid-19 Operational Update July 2021
Happy Summer!
As of Monday 19th July the government removed many of the legal restrictions that have governed the recent lock down rules.
They have stressed that the pandemic is not over and infections will and are continuing to rise.
The government is encouraging everyone to proceed with caution and wherever possible continue to follow the safe practices we have been so far.
Whilst vaccines have weakened the link between infection and hospitalisation this link is not entirely broken and some risk remains.
Films at 59 continue to be “business as COVID usual” and are proud to offer our full range of services.
At every level we remain dedicated to providing you with a safe environment to fulfil your creative ambition.
As always, we continue to follow the UK Screen Alliance advice regarding safe working practice in post production and VFX which is endorsed by BECTU and PACT. In order to protect everyone’s wellbeing and ensure projects can continue running smoothly, the advice for safe working in post production has not changed. This means we will continue to follow the same safe working practices we have been so far.
Namely:
-
1) Limiting numbers in the building and continuing to support remote working
-
2) Ensuring lateral flow tests are completed by everyone before entering the building
-
3) Wearing face masks in communal areas and in group meetings / attended sessions
-
4) Offering viewing rooms for attended sessions and where this is not possible only the minimal number of people from production to attend – never exceeding maximum room occupancy.
-
5) Keeping all attended sessions, meetings, and interactions to the minimum time required
-
6) Adhering to social distancing measures and hands, face, space
-
7) Regular cleaning and sanitising of all areas
-
8) Working in bubbles
We appreciate everyone’s cooperation and recognition of the importance of our safe working COVID policy being a condition of admittance and that we all need to continue “doing our part” to keep everyone safe and continue delivering programmes.
Please always feel free to contact us with any queries and “stay safe and well”.
Sincerely
