If you’ve been to Moab during Easter Jeep Safari—or as most people call it, Jeep Week—you already know. The town is packed, the trails are buzzing, and every direction you look, there’s another rig tackling an insane line that most people wouldn’t even attempt. It’s absolute mayhem in the best way possible.

For off-road enthusiasts, it’s the highlight of the year. For photographers and filmmakers? It’s an absolute goldmine. Moab always delivers when it comes to stunning backdrops, but during Jeep Week, the energy and action are on another level. Whether you’re a brand looking to capture top-tier off-road content or an individual who wants a next-level edit of your rig on the trails, this is the time to do it.

Filming in Moab comes with its own set of challenges. Whether you’re shooting an outdoor commercial, a documentary, or an action sports project, having a team that understands the terrain, permits, and logistics makes a huge difference.

Our team is based in Moab, and over the years, we’ve built deep local knowledge and connections that streamline productions. We also have satellite offices in Salt Lake City, Denver, and Boston, but our work takes us everywhere. No matter where a shoot happens, we bring the same expertise in navigating logistics, permits, and unpredictable conditions.

Moab is hands down one of the most epic places to film. The red rock landscapes, winding canyons, and wide-open desert make it a dream location for everything from high-budget productions to small independent shoots. But before you start rolling, you’ll need to get the right permits—and trust me, that can be a headache if you don’t know where to start. This guide breaks it down so you know exactly who to contact, how long it takes, and what to expect. And if you want to skip the hassle? Desert Trip Productions can handle it all, from permits to full-scale production and post.

Every filmmaker loves a challenge, and what better challenge than competing in the Doritos Crash the Super Bowl contest? It’s a golden opportunity to flex our creative muscles, have a blast on set, and create something that’s both hilarious and visually compelling. Our team at Desert Trip Productions took on the challenge, and here’s how we brought our vision to life.
