FAQs ABOUT FILMING IN THE LIBRARY

I am filming an exercise for my class, can I film in the Library?

Yes, you can film in the library if you are filming for a class exercise.

You will need to:

  • Ask the Librarian on duty if filming is OK
  • If you film anyone in the library, please notify them and ask their permission.
  • Be considerate of others using the library--it is a shared space!

I would like to use the Library as a location for a shoot?

If you would like to use the Library for a film shoot you will need to:

  1. Fill in an AFTRS Internal Location Agreement form. This document can be found at the Production Technology office (located on the ground floor) or on Moodle in the Production Centre.
  2. Speak to the Library staff and get signed approval from the Library Supervisor to shoot in the Library.
  3. Get signed approval from the Building Supervisor.

Please Note:

  • The Library is an active space and is open to the public between the hours of 10.00am - 6.00pm Monday - Friday, because of this there may be restrictions placed on when, how and where you can film in the library.
  • Library shelving cannot be moved for any reason.
  • Library furniture can only be moved with the permission of Library staff and the AFTRS Building Manager.
  • Be mindful of others using the space when shooting, as it is their library too.

I would like to use the furniture in the Library for a film shoot?

The furniture in the library is generally not allowed to be used for shoots, but if you have special circumstances please contact the Facilities Services at building@aftrs.edu.au
