Cinelease COVID-19 Reopening Rules, Policies, Procedures, and Guidelines

As production resumes, Cinelease Studios is fully committed to creating the safest work environment for our clients and studio staff. We look to incorporate safe practices while at the same time making sure that the needs of your production are met. This will truly be a team effort between Cinelease team members and our valued clients. Cinelease Studios requests that each production forwards their cleaning plan to studio management for review. To that end, we have put together this document to help steer us through the days ahead.

PROTOCOL DEFINITIONS

The CDC have published the following guidelines:

WASH YOUR HANDS OFTEN

• Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds especially after you have been in a public place, or after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing. • If soap and water are not readily availabe, use hand sanitizer. Cover all surfaces of your hands and rub them together until they feel dry.

• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.

AVOID CLOSE CONTACT

• Avoid close contact with people who are sick, even inside your home. If possible, maintain 6 feet between the person who is sick and other household members. • Put distance between yourself and other people outside of your home. • Remember that some people without symptoms may be able to spread the virus. • Stay at least 6 feet from other people. • Do not gather in groups. • Stay out of crowded places and avoid mass gatherings. • Keeping distance from others is especially important for people who are at higher risk of getting very sick.

COVER YOUR MOUTH AND NOSE WITH A FACE COVERING WHEN AROUND OTHERS

• You could spread COVID-19 to others even if you do not feel sick. • As recommened by the current CDC guidelines, all Cinelease employees, vendors and customers will be required to wear face coverings. • Face coverings must not be placed on young children under age 2, anyone who has trouble breathing, or is unconscious, incapacitated or otherwise unable to remove the mask without assistance. • The face covering is meant to protect other people in case you are infected. • Continue to keep 6 feet between yourself and others. The face covering is not a substitute for physical distancing.

COVER COUGHS AND SNEEZES

• If you are in a private setting and do not have on your cloth face covering, remember to always cover

your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze or use the inside of your elbow.

• Throw used tissues in the trash.

• Immediately wash your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. If soap and water are not readily available, clean your hands with a hand sanitizer.

CLEAN AND DISINFECT

• Clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces daily. This includes tables, doorknobs, light switches, countertops, handles, desks, phones, keyboards, toilets, faucets, and sinks. • If surfaces are dirty, clean them. Use detergent, soap or EPA registered disinfectants while cleaning and disinfecting.

ENTRY PROTOCOLS

Access to the Studio lot will be controlled by Cinelease and/or Studio Partners. Access to filming areas, base camp areas, and offices related to production will be controlled by the production itself. Cinelease asks that those procedures related to production access be forwarded to studio management for review. Cinelease recognizes that all parties will want to limit access to only essential personnel. • Upon entry, all studio and production personnel will drive through the entry gates (no stopping) and head immediately to designated parking. • Productions with office space in the main building will follow the above guidelines or will need to be moved to another area of the campus. • Productions with stage and office space on other areas of the campus will be directed from the parking lot to the mobile office trailer to have the production specific wellness screenings performed. (Directed by the production’s staff) • All vendor delivery schedules must be communicated to Studio management prior to their arrival. When applicable, Cinelease Studios recommends that the delivery driver not exit the vehicle. • Cinelease Studios strongly recommends that any vendor appointments be conducted via telephone, email, or video conferencing. This will assist everyone in reducing the number of people on the studio lot at any time. • Hand sanitizer stations will be set up periodically throughout the campus. Cover all surfaces of your hands and rub them together until they feel dry. • PPE for Cinelease Studios and/or Studio Partners will be provided internally.
