THIS WEEK IN THE UKRAINE
Rating on Control Room Index (comparative cost data for production in Ukraine)
Number of people allowed on set – 50
Travel restriction – from 15th June, flights open to all foreign nationals
Ukraine was not impacted as much as other European countries luckily. They have been able to still carry on with a few production jobs throughout lockdown (under strict laws of course). Currently, they are allowed to book a location for shoots or hire vehicles like helicopters, whilst it still remains quite difficult in other countries. For every production shoot, one producer must be assigned to make sure everyone adheres to the guideline for the new laws. Places are opening more; guidelines are becoming less strict. People can start going back to work, though main still prefer remote working until lockdown is truly lifted.
