I am a filmmaker with his own production company. I currently have a 10 year B1/B2 Visa which was given to me so i could attend film festivals and award functions in the USA.
Now my company has been contracted by a US company to shoot(executive produce and direct) a documentary in Chicago, and then do post production work in India.
My question is- does that mean i have to apply for a new visa? Under which category should it be? Business? Media or Entertainer? If its business, i got a b2 visa but on my passport it says B1/B2. Would i have to apply again? Would these rules change if it was cofinanced by an indian company?
I am in a bind as i dont know anyone who has done this. Please help me out.
