The City of Cape Town’s Events and Film Department has urged all residents to comment on the Draft Filming By-law.
This comes after the
By-law seeks to replace the City’s Filming By-law of 2005.
PICTURE: PixabayThe By-law aims to
empower the City’s Film Permit Office to better manage and regulate filming activities
within the Mother City.
Cape Town continues to
be a desired setting for movies, and the city makes an effort to be a
film-friendly location. However, the City must strike a balance between the
demands of locals who use public places and economic operations like
filmmaking. Therefore, the goal is to control transient public nuisances caused
by filming.
The department has
drafted a document to ensure that the Mother City’s management and regulation
of filming are in line with international standards.
“All comments and
suggestions received will be considered for inclusion” said The city’s JP Smith
