Following the guidelines of Beijing Reform and Development Commission published on February 22nd, Beijing Film Bureau issued “An Epidemic Preventive Guidelines to Beijing Film Industry on Resuming Work During the Covid-19». There are rules and conditions regulating the permission for production companies to shoot in the city of Beijing, but we think it’s a good sign and hopefully soon the same announcement will be made for Shanghai. Below are the details of the document and conditions.
遵从北京市发改委2月22日发布的指导意见，北京市电影局制定了《新冠肺炎流行期间北京市电影行业复工防疫指引》。该指引对需在北京进行拍摄的制作机构设立规定和条件, 但我们认为这是一个乐观现象，并希望上海即将发布同样的通知。以下是指引的详细。
- Film production unites shall formulate epidemic prevention and control plans and emergency response plans before resuming work, and the fixed office location shall be able to resume work only if conditions permit according to the provisions and requirements of the territory;
- Staff must have a temperature check before entering the office area. Those with a temperature above 37.3 degrees are not allowed to enter office area

The cast and crew do not have to wear masks when performing, but shall wear masks after performance is finished.
- In principle, if the number of crew members exceeds 50, they shall not start shooting in this city before the end of the epidemic. The specific time at which shooting shall be allowed shall be separately announced by the municipal and district departments in charge of the industry.
