2. Reservations, Payment & Studio Use
2.1 Reservation Requirements
All studio reservations must be paid in full at the time of booking. Payment shall be made via credit/debit card, cash, ACH transfer, Zelle or Venmo. A reservation is not considered confirmed or binding until (i) full payment has been received and processed, and (ii) the Renter has executed all required documentation, including a Studio Rental Agreement, when applicable. Upon confirmation, the reserved date and time shall be removed from public availability and held exclusively for the Renter.
The Renter acknowledges and agrees to be bound by the Company’s published rates and pricing in effect at the time the reservation is made. Credit card transactions may incur a 3.75% transaction surcharge, and Venmo transactions may incur a 2% surcharge.
2.2 Rental Period and Studio Use
The rental period shall begin promptly at the scheduled start time and shall conclude promptly at the scheduled end time, regardless of the Renter’s actual arrival or usage. Rental time must include all setup, staging, talent prep, technical preparation, breakdown, and cleanup activities. The Studio must be fully cleaned, restored to its original condition, and vacated by the end of the rental period.
Early delivery or drop-off of equipment, props, materials, or other items, and any post-session pickup or extended occupancy, is strictly prohibited unless expressly approved in writing by WRECK’D Productions LLC in advance. Additional fees may apply for any such approved accommodations.
2.3 Exclusivity and Billable Time
Once a reservation is confirmed, the Studio, its equipment, and any personnel or technical support allocated to the session are reserved exclusively for the Renter for the entirety of the booked time block and rendered unavailable to other clients. Accordingly, all reserved time is fully billable, non-refundable, non-transferable, and may not be credited toward future bookings, irrespective of the Renter’s actual usage. This includes, but is not limited to, late arrivals, early departures, breaks, delays caused by the Renter or third parties, or the Renter’s decision to conclude the session prior to the scheduled end time. This policy reflects standard industry practice for ensuring equitable scheduling and resource allocation.
2.4 Conditions Precedent to Studio Use
Prior to occupying or utilizing the Studio, the Renter shall provide, in advance of the rental date, the following items and acknowledgments:
- When applicable, a fully executed Studio Rental Agreement;
- When applicable, a valid Certificate of Insurance naming WRECK’D Productions LLC and A Shore Thing Productions LLC as Additional Insured;
- Full payment of all applicable service fees, including but not limited to studio rental, professional services, and equipment fees.
Failure to satisfy any of the foregoing requirements may, at the sole discretion of WRECK’D Productions LLC, result in cancellation of the reservation, denial of studio access, and/or forfeiture of any payments made.
2.5 Deposit Payments (If Accepted by Company)
While full payment is generally required at the time of booking, the Company may, at its sole discretion, allow the Renter to secure a reservation through a deposit payment. Any deposit accepted by the Company shall be deemed non-refundable, regardless of the Renter’s reason for cancellation or the amount of notice provided.
If a deposit is accepted, the remaining balance shall be due by the deadline specified by the Company. The Company’s cancellation policy shall apply only to amounts paid in excess of the deposit. Under no circumstances shall any deposit be refunded, credited, or transferred to another booking.
The deposit is never refunded and is not included when calculating any refund amount. Only the portion of the balance that has actually been paid by the Renter at the time of cancellation may be eligible for a partial refund under the cancellation schedule. If the Renter has not yet paid the remaining balance, then no refund is owed.
Failure to remit the remaining balance by the required deadline may result in cancellation of the reservation at the Company’s discretion, with all payments made to date being forfeited.
2.6 Chargebacks and Payment Disputes
By submitting payment, the Renter acknowledges and agrees that all reservations, services, and reserved time blocks are non-refundable, non-transferable, and not eligible for chargeback or payment dispute, except in cases of verified unauthorized transaction or billing error.
The Renter expressly agrees not to initiate a chargeback with their bank, credit card provider, or payment processor for any fees associated with:
- studio reservations,
- professional services rendered,
- reserved or allocated time,
- cancellation fees,
- no-shows,
- overtime charges,
- or any other charges governed by these Terms & Conditions.
If the Renter initiates a chargeback in violation of these Terms, the Renter shall remain responsible for:
- the full original amount owed;
- all chargeback fees imposed on the Company;
- any administrative or processing costs incurred;
- and any attorney’s fees, collection costs, or damages required to recover the amounts owed.
The Company reserves the right to pursue all remedies available under law in response to any fraudulent, abusive, or bad-faith chargeback attempts.
3. Overtime Policy & Fees
3.1 Overtime Authorization
All rentals must conclude by the scheduled end time. Any use of the Studio, equipment, or on-site personnel beyond the reserved time constitutes overtime. Overtime is subject to Studio and staff availability and may only occur with the advance approval of WRECK’D Productions LLC (“Company”). If another reservation is scheduled immediately following the Renter’s session, overtime will not be permitted under any circumstances.
3.2 Billing of Overtime
The Company reserves the right to assess overtime fees for any time exceeding the scheduled booking. Overtime fees may be calculated in thirty-minute or hourly increments, at the Company’s then-current applicable rates. Final overtime charges may vary based on the nature of the production, staffing requirements, equipment use, and other project-specific considerations.
3.3 Payment Requirements
All overtime fees must be paid immediately upon assessment and prior to the continuation or completion of the session, regardless of whether the Company is providing recorded media or any other deliverables. If overtime occurs during a studio-only rental, the Company reserves the right to pause or terminate the session until all outstanding overtime fees are paid in full.
When applicable, no recorded media created by or through WRECK’D Productions LLC shall be released, uploaded, delivered, or made available to the Renter until all overtime fees and any other outstanding balances have been fully satisfied.
Credit card transactions may be subject to a 3.75% transaction surcharge, and Venmo transactions may be subject to a 2% surcharge.
3.4 No Refund for Unused Time
No refund, credit, or adjustment will be provided for unused rental time, regardless of early completion, late arrival, production delays, or any other circumstances.
4. Cancellation, Same-Week Bookings, No-Shows & Late Arrivals
4.1 General Policy
Once a reservation is confirmed, the Studio, equipment, and any required personnel are allocated exclusively for the Renter’s use. Because the Company removes the reserved date and time from its availability and may decline other work in reliance on that reservation, any request by the Renter to cancel, move, postpone, reschedule, or otherwise change the booked session shall be treated as a cancellation of the original reservation and shall be governed exclusively by this Section.
The Company does not offer an automatic right to reschedule. Any future booking requested after a cancellation shall be treated as a new booking, subject to current rates, availability, staffing, minimums, and any other applicable terms in effect at that time.
4.2 Written Notice Required
All cancellation requests and all requests to move, postpone, or change a reservation must be submitted in writing by the Renter.
The effective date of cancellation shall be the date on which the Company actually receives the written notice.
4.3 Cancellation Tiers
Because the reserved time cannot always be rebooked on short notice, the following cancellation terms apply:
(a) Cancellations Made Fourteen (14) or More Calendar Days Before the Session
If the Renter cancels fourteen (14) or more calendar days before the scheduled session start time, the Renter may be eligible, at the Company’s sole discretion, for either:
- a refund equal to fifty percent (50%) of amounts actually paid beyond any non-refundable deposit; or
- a studio credit equal to fifty percent (50%) of amounts actually paid beyond any non-refundable deposit.
Any refund or credit shall be reduced by all Non-Recoverable Costs already incurred by the Company.
(b) Cancellations Made Seven (7) to Thirteen (13) Calendar Days Before the Session
If the Renter cancels between seven (7) and thirteen (13) calendar days before the scheduled session start time, the Renter may be eligible, at the Company’s sole discretion, for either:
- a refund equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of amounts actually paid beyond any non-refundable deposit; or
- a studio credit equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of amounts actually paid beyond any non-refundable deposit.
Any refund or credit shall be reduced by all Non-Recoverable Costs already incurred by the Company.
(c) Cancellations Made Less Than Seven (7) Calendar Days Before the Session
Any cancellation made fewer than seven (7) calendar days before the scheduled session start time is non-refundable, non-transferable, and not eligible for studio credit.
The Company shall have no obligation to refund any portion of the booking price or apply any portion of amounts paid toward a future date.
4.4 Same-Week Bookings
Any booking made within the same calendar week in which the session is scheduled to occur, or otherwise made fewer than seven (7) calendar days before the scheduled session start time, shall be deemed a same-week booking.
Same-week bookings are final upon booking and are not eligible for cancellation, refund, credit, postponement, rescheduling, or transfer.
For example, if a booking is made on Monday for a session scheduled for Friday of that same week, that booking is a same-week booking and no changes of any kind shall be permitted.
4.5 Studio Credits
If the Company elects to issue a studio credit in lieu of a refund, the following terms shall apply:
- The credit shall be limited strictly to the amount expressly approved by the Company under the applicable cancellation tier.
- The credit shall have no cash value and may not be redeemed for cash.
- The credit shall be non-transferable and may be used only by the original Renter for one future booking with the Company.
- The credit must be used to book and complete a replacement session within sixty (60) calendar days of the original scheduled session date, unless the Company agrees otherwise in writing.
- Any replacement booking shall be subject to the Company’s then-current rates, minimums, staffing requirements, scope, and availability.
- If the replacement booking costs more than the approved credit amount, the difference must be paid in full before the new booking is confirmed.
- If the replacement booking costs less than the approved credit amount, any unused portion of the credit shall be forfeited, unless the Company agrees otherwise in writing.
- No date shall be held or confirmed unless and until the Company approves the new booking and all additional charges, if any, are paid in full.
4.6 Deposit and Refund Calculations
While the Company generally requires payment in full at the time of booking, the Company may, at its sole discretion, allow the Renter to secure a reservation by paying a deposit.
Any deposit accepted by the Company is strictly non-refundable under all circumstances and shall never be included in any refund or credit calculation.
Any refund percentage or credit percentage described in this Section applies only to amounts actually paid by the Renter beyond the non-refundable deposit. If no amount beyond the deposit has been paid at the time of cancellation, then no refund or credit shall be due.
4.7 Non-Recoverable Costs
For purposes of this Agreement, “Non-Recoverable Costs” include, without limitation:
- Set design, fabrication, construction, scenic preparation, or custom setup work;
- Lighting design, lighting preparation, lighting programming, rigging, patching, or showfile preparation;
- Administrative time spent on planning, scheduling, budgeting, communication, or coordination;
- Pre-production services, creative development, consultations, and technical planning;
- Materials, consumables, rentals, or purchases made specifically for the project;
- Additional staffing, operators, technicians, contractors, or labor secured for the session; and
- Custom digital assets, templates, graphics, overlays, layouts, or other project-specific deliverables (monograms, overlays, templates, graphics, layouts, etc.).
All Non-Recoverable Costs are fully non-refundable at all times, regardless of the date of cancellation.
4.8 No-Shows and Forfeited Sessions
A Renter who fails to appear for the scheduled session, fails to appear in sufficient time to make the session reasonably possible, or otherwise forfeits the reserved session shall be deemed a no-show.
No-shows and forfeited sessions are strictly non-refundable, non-transferable, and not eligible for credit.
Any future session requested after a no-show must be booked separately as a new booking at the Company’s then-current rates.
4.9 Late Arrivals
If the Renter arrives late, the session shall still conclude at the originally scheduled end time.
No complimentary time extension, refund, or credit shall be provided for time lost due to the Renter’s late arrival.
If the Renter requests additional time and the Studio, personnel, and resources remain available, such additional time may, at the Company’s discretion, be provided and billed at the Company’s applicable overtime or extension rates.
4.10 Deposit Payments and Their Effect on Refunds
While the Company generally requires full payment at the time of booking, the Company may, at its sole discretion, allow the Renter to secure a reservation with a deposit. Any deposit accepted by the Company is strictly non-refundable, regardless of when the cancellation occurs or the reason for cancellation.
The refund percentages described in this Cancellation Policy apply only to amounts paid beyond the deposit. The deposit is never refunded and is never included in the refund calculation.
Only the portion of the remaining balance that has actually been paid by the Renter at the time of cancellation may be eligible for a partial refund under the applicable cancellation tier.
If the Renter has not yet paid the remaining balance, then no refund is owed because there is no refundable amount beyond the deposit.
Example (for clarity):
If the total cost is $1,000 and the Renter pays a $300 non-refundable deposit and only $200 of the remaining $700 balance before canceling, the cancellation refund percentages apply only to the $200 actually paid, not to the deposit or the unpaid balance.
Failure to pay the remaining balance by the deadline specified by the Company may result in cancellation of the reservation at the Company’s discretion, with all payments made to date forfeited.
4.11 Force Majeure
The Company shall not be liable for any delay, interruption, or failure to perform caused by events beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, severe weather, fire, flood, utility interruption, internet outage, equipment failure not caused by the Company’s willful misconduct, labor shortage, pandemic, epidemic, war, terrorism, civil unrest, government action, bankruptcy, or similar events.
In such circumstances, the Company may, at its sole discretion, offer an alternate date, partial credit, or other accommodation. Refunds are not guaranteed.
5. Studio Recognition and Media Credit
5.1 Credit Requirement
The Renter agrees that WRECK’D Productions LLC (“Company”) shall receive proper credit for its services, contribution, facilities, and participation in the creation of any media produced, recorded, filmed, photographed, or otherwise developed within the Studio. This obligation applies to all forms of distribution, including but not limited to online platforms, social media, streaming services, broadcast television, radio, podcasts, film, print publications, promotional materials, and any other public or commercial media outlet.

6. Age Requirements for Participants

The Renter is solely and fully responsible for ensuring that all individuals participating in any photographic, filming, audio recording, or related activities conducted within the Studio are of legal age to do so. The Company does not assume any responsibility for verifying or determining the ages of participants involved in the Renter’s production.
6.2 Minors Under the Age of Eighteen (18)
For any participant under the age of eighteen (18), the Renter must obtain written parental or legal guardian consent prior to the minor’s participation. The Renter is solely responsible for securing, maintaining, and storing all necessary parental consent documentation.

6.3 Verification and Identification
The Company is not responsible for validating identification documents, verifying ages, or confirming the authenticity of any parental consent forms. The Renter shall be solely liable for any misrepresentation, fraudulent documentation, or legal infractions arising from minors’ participation.
6.4 Termination for Non-Compliance
If the Company becomes aware, or reasonably suspects, that age requirements have been violated or that minors are participating without proper parental or guardian consent, the Company may immediately terminate the session and require all participants to vacate the premises. In such circumstances, no refunds, credits, or compensation will be provided for unused rental time or associated fees.
6.5 Indemnification
The Renter agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless WRECK’D Productions LLC from any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, penalties, or legal actions arising from the participation of minors in the Renter’s activities, including but not limited to claims relating to lack of parental consent, misrepresentation of age, or unauthorized use of minors in media production.
7. Studio, Services, and Equipment
7.1 Studio Condition and Suitability
The Company agrees to provide access to the Studio in good working order; however, the Studio is provided strictly on an “as-is, with all faults” basis. The Company makes no warranties, express or implied, regarding the Studio’s condition, functionality, or fitness for any particular purpose. The Renter is solely responsible for determining whether the Studio meets the requirements of their project.
7.2 Operation of Company Equipment
All equipment owned, supplied, or made available by the Company may be handled or operated only by the Company’s trained personnel, technicians, engineers, or authorized representatives.

7.3 Renter’s Property; Storage and Abandonment
The Company assumes no liability for any equipment, props, materials, or personal property brought onto the premises by the Renter or any member of the Renter’s party. All such items must be removed by the Renter immediately upon conclusion of the session, unless otherwise authorized in writing by the Company.
Any property left on the premises for more than three (3) days shall be deemed abandoned and may be discarded, destroyed, or retained for Company use at the Company’s sole discretion. No compensation or reimbursement shall be owed to the Renter for any abandoned items.
7.4 Limitation of Liability; Force Majeure
The Company shall not be liable for any damages, losses, delays, or failures to perform its obligations under this Agreement caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control. Such circumstances include, but are not limited to:

8. Lighting Production Services
8.1 Standard Lighting Busking (Black Box Soundstage Rentals)
For Black Box Soundstage rentals, WRECK’D Productions LLC (“Company”) provides standard lighting production busking as part of the rental services. Busking is performed by the Company’s lighting technician in real time and may include live adjustments to color, intensity, movement, and timing to complement the creative direction of the production team and the Director of Photography (DP). Standard busking is intended to support and enhance the overall visual aesthetic of productions utilizing the Black Box Soundstage and is performed within the capabilities of the existing lighting system.
8.2 Custom Lighting Programming and Design
Custom lighting programming, custom lighting looks, tailored visual environments, or any advanced lighting design beyond standard busking constitute specialty services and require significant preparation, programming time, and technical resources. As such, these services are not included in standard Studio rentals and will incur additional fees at the Company’s applicable rates.
Any request for custom lighting work must be discussed in advance of the rental date during a scheduled consultation meeting. The scope, feasibility, and pricing of such work shall be determined by the Company based on the complexity of the requested design.

It is the Renter’s responsibility to notify the Company prior to the execution of services if they desire:
- Custom lighting programming
- Custom lighting looks or programmed cues
- Tailored lighting environments or visual designs
- Any lighting services beyond standard busking
The Company is not obligated to perform custom lighting programming on the day of the session without prior notice, proper planning, or a signed service agreement. Failure to request such services in advance may result in the Company’s inability to provide them, and no refunds or adjustments will be issued due to unfulfilled custom lighting expectations.
8.4 Additional Costs
All custom lighting services, programming hours, design time, meetings, and revisions shall be billed at the Company’s current rates. No custom lighting work will be initiated until all applicable fees have been approved and paid as required.
9. Recording Services Provided by WRECK’D Productions

WRECK’D Productions LLC (“Company”) retains all ownership, title, and intellectual property rights in and to any and all audio, video, photographic, or related media created (“Recording Media”) until all fees due have been paid in full.

No partial payment, deposit, or installment shall convey any ownership rights of any kind.
9.2 Operation of Recording Equipment
The Company will provide qualified personnel to set up, operate, and manage all Company-owned recording equipment necessary to perform the services outlined in this Agreement.

The Renter must notify the Company in writing within the same thirty (30) day period of any alleged defects, missing files, errors, quality concerns, or issues of any kind.
Failure to provide written notice within this timeframe shall constitute the Renter’s full and unconditional acceptance of the Recording Media and an irrevocable acknowledgment that the services rendered were satisfactory. Upon acceptance (whether express or implied), the Renter hereby releases and forever discharges the Company from any and all liability, claims, demands, damages, losses, or obligations relating to the Recording Media and/or the services provided.
9.4 Retention, Deletion, and Storage Limitations
After the thirty (30) day review period expires, the Company shall have no obligation to maintain, retain, store, archive, preserve, or provide access to any Recording Media, and may permanently delete such media from its systems without further notice.
The Renter understands and agrees that:
- If the thirty (30) day period lapses and the Recording Media is no longer available,
- The Company shall bear no responsibility, liability, or obligation whatsoever for the loss of such media, and
- Any re-recording shall constitute a new, separate service engagement subject to the Company’s current rates, availability, terms, and payment requirements.
The Company does not archive, store, or retain any Recording Media beyond the thirty (30) day period unless the Renter is actively enrolled in a paid Monthly Storage Plan at the time of recording. The Storage Plan must be active and in good standing for the duration of the desired retention period. For more information regarding storage plans, the Renter must contact the Company directly.
