If you have to go overtime you MUST contact Vintage Light Studios and have it approved in which case the extra time will be billed at $113/hour
If you impact the renter after you by running late, hourly billing is $200/hour plus any costs incurred by the renter after you.
The door lock and security cameras will tell us when you exited the studio.

Studio Security
The studio is monitored by security cameras and they are not to be blocked or tampered with in any way.
If the cameras are tampered with by moving, blocking or disconnecting them there is a $500 penalty for doing so

Insurance & Liability
Anyone renting at Vintage Light Studios MUST have their own shoot insurance
Vintage Light Studios will not be held accountable for any accidents that happen in the studio to you or your team.
Any insurance related issues are the sole responsibility of the renter.
By signing the rental contract, you waive Vintage Light Studios from any liability from your rental

Failure To Lockup After Your Rental
You are responsible for locking up the studio when you leave. When you close the door, tap the keypad and press the lock icon in the bottom right. You will hear the door's deadbolt close. Test the door to make sure it is locked.
If you do not lock up you will be billed $500
If you failed to lock up and any equipment is stolen or there is damage to the studio you will be charged accordingly for the losses/damage in addition to the $500.

Rental Studio Automation
Vintage Light Studios uses an automated access system. We are very rarely present when you come in for your rental.
In the event that you can not gain access to the studio, we will extend your rental time or credit you for the lost time.
Vintage Light Studios will not compensate you for any contractor costs or be held financially liable for any other costs.
Photographers/videographers should have their own shoot insurance for those situations.

Cleanup
You are required to clean up after your rental.
If you come in and the studio is not clean please notify us immediately
The space should be as clean or better as when it was provided to you.
Garbage bags are located on the shelf behind the red curtain next to the makeup table.
Take any garbage/recycling out to the dumpster in the back parking lot.
If the space is not left clean you will be charged a $200 cleaning fee

Photography Equipment
Vintage Light Studios includes in the price access to our photography and video lighting systems and all the grip equipment.
Seamless paper backdrops ARE NOT included in your rental. To use a seamless paper backdrop there is a charge of $25 with HST per backdrop. If you use backdrops without paying for them you will be charged $100.
Any damage to the equipment will be billed to you at a price for replacement or repair.
If you mistakenly take one of our radio triggers for the lighting system you MUST return it immediately. If it's not returned within 3 hours of your notification you will be charged $500 for the trigger.

Smoking/Open Flame
SMOKING IS NOT PERMITTED. Under no circumstances can anyone smoke in the studio or in the building. This includes vaporizers. All smoking MUST be done outside the building
Absolutely no open flame is permitted inside the studio such as candles

Smoke Machines
It's ok to use smoke machines in the studio
All smoke must be cleared by the time your rental ends as it will potentially impact the next renters.
In the case that it is not clear and the next renters are affected by the residual smoke in the space, you will be subject to any costs incurred by the next renters or production schedule issues associated with the renter coming in after you.

Washrooms
There are 2 washrooms are located on the 3rd floor across from the elevators.
Keys for the washroom will be hanging by the entry door to the studio.

Noise Levels / Sound System
There are other people that work in my building and the walls & floors are not particularly soundproofed so I EXPECT you to keep the volume down at any time of day.
There is a Sonos sound system in the studio for you to use. All you have to do is connect to the WIFI network to pair your device with it.
It's fine to have some ambient tunes going but if you have to talk loudly over your music it is too loud.
If I get noise complaints, you will have to pay a $500 surcharge.
