As a response to the fatal shooting of a cinematographer on the set of a movie in 2021, the California Legislature on Tuesday passed a bill that sets safety protocols for film and television productions.

The legislation, Senate Bill 132, establishes mandatory guidelines around the use of firearms and ammunition and limits the use of live ammunition. Training requirements for prop masters and armorers would also be implemented.

"Conversations about this legislation started the week after the tragic loss of a cinematographer," Cortese said in a press release."Those negotiations have produced the nation's first and best safety practices for California workers in the vital motion picture industry." It also creates a five-year pilot program that requires any employer who receives that tax credit to hire an advisor to perform risk assessments and participate in daily safety meetings.
