Frequently Asked Questions — Calgary Crew
Can I use Calgary as a base for Rocky Mountain shoots?
Yes — Banff is 90 minutes from Calgary, Jasper 3.5 hours. Assignment Desk coordinates city-to-mountains productions, combining Calgary corporate shoots with stunning Rocky Mountain content.
What is the Calgary Stampede?
The Calgary Stampede is one of the world's largest rodeo and exhibition events (every July). It drives significant production demand for event coverage, sponsorship content, and behind-the-scenes features.
What are Calgary's production costs?
Alberta has no provincial sales tax, making Calgary cost-competitive. Canadian dollar exchange rates provide additional savings for US-budgeted productions.
What is Calgary's weather like for production?
Summer (June-August) is ideal with warm weather and long days. Calgary gets chinook winds in winter that can bring sudden warming. Winter is cold (-10 to -20°C) but often sunny.
Can I combine Calgary with Edmonton or Vancouver?
Yes — Edmonton is 3 hours north, Vancouver is a 1-hour flight west. Assignment Desk coordinates multi-city western Canadian productions regularly.
