Entering the USA with a business visa for documentary filming?

Hi there,

I am currently shooting an independent documentary that is requiring multiple trips to the USA (I am a UK citizen).

On previous trips I have used a visa intended for recreation (it is a minimal production that has been entirely self-financed until recently) but have had to deal with a lot of hassle while entering the country each time as part of this.

I am now considering applying for a business visa for the next trip (mostly due to acquiring even more professional-looking equipment) but am concerned about what the process will actually entail. If anyone would please be able to shine a light on the process I would greatly appreciate it.

Many thanks!
