Keeping Production in California: Building an Influential Coalition To Save and Create Jobs and Business Now.
4:00 PM-5:30 PM: Main Theater (free to attend)
California’s film production and post-production industries face a life-threatening assault —not just from a beleaguered economy but from U.S. states and global locations like Canada, the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Hungary, and many others. For over 15 years, generous tax incentives (cash and credits), affordable locations, and an expanding global workforce have been eroding the careers of the incomparable and ready below-the-line talent in the film capital of the world and impacting the businesses that support production and post. Engage in this important conversation to see what has and (has not) been done by California lawmakers to support the industry; and find out what needs to done to shore up the business in California for the 21st Century. Key players and participants in one of the most important industries in the state will be on hand. Panelists include local and state government officials, producers, studio staff and crew. Sponsored by the 9,000 member Facebook community and online portal,shootmoviesincalifornia.com, founded by cinematographer Ed Gutentag.
