Over the past few years, metro Atlanta and Georgia have become one of the leading locations for film and television production, thanks to the state legislation that provides competitive tax incentives. Equally important is the area’s robust infrastructure that supports this creative economy — Atlanta and Georgia offers:
- A skilled workforce, ranging from actors and writers and musicians and artists to production professionals to the many other talented individuals that support our creative industry
- Cost-effective real estate, ranging from production and recording facilities to camera-ready locations to the offices and warehouses needed to accommodate creative workers and their equipment
- The latest technology and talent needed to create the best works —
production equipment, I.T. expertise, logistics coordination, and the all important back-end support services
As a result of these advantages, Atlanta and Georgia have enjoyed record setting growth. In 2015 alone, movies and TV shows produced in the state generated an economic impact of more than $6 billion.
