Film-TV Crews

Global Talent is one of the few law firms with extensive experience servicing international film and television crews that come to shoot in the United States.

Film crews often have very tight timelines and it is imperative to not only move quickly but often request special priority consideration from multiple film & TV industry unions, USCIS as well as the US State Department.

Perhaps the greatest challenge facing international film and TV crews and other large groups is coordinating the processes that must occur at the US embassy or consulate, where all applicants must be interviewed. Getting each member of a large group to create an online profile with the US State Department, complete an extensive and detailed non-immigrant visa application, schedule an appointment within a tight timeframe, bring the right paperwork, and say the right thing at the consular interview is a tall order. We at Global Talent are able to assist with all of these steps.

We also have decades of experience communicating with the State Department to make the consular interviews go as smoothly as possible.
