Required to film using the public right of way, closures, or Metro coordination. Comprehensive general liability of at least $1,000,000 is required, plus auto liability if vehicles are used. Casual personal shooting that does not occupy public space is not the target.
Drone / airspace
Commercial drone work requires FAA Part 107; coordinate with the film office for flying over Metro property
Local and Tennessee state restrictions sit on top of FAA airspace rules. For Part 107 and drone law, see Drone Authority.
Street / public space
Yes: you can photograph what is visible from public space in the US
Private property sets its own rules regardless of city law.
Practical notes
- Metro Parks filming is a separate permit from the street film permit.
- Downtown and Broadway street use involves NDOT temporary street closure permits and possible fire marshal sign-off.
Guidance, not legal advice
Rules change and enforcement varies. Confirm with the issuing authority before you shoot. Drone law depth lives at Drone Authority.
