Description

Join Film Columbus and the Greater Columbus Arts Council as we present a lively discussion on the present and future state of film in CBus. *** SAVE THE DATE *** ** Thursday, April 28, 2022, 1pm-5pm at Gateway Film Center • Followed by networking opportunties ** Discussions will include the Ohio Motion Picture Tax Credit, local incentives in Columbus and how we grow the infrastructure and crew base, and setting up your project and business to succeed. The term “film industry” has evolved into more than just film. For us in Columbus, “film” refers to not only the film industry but television, animation, gaming, and tech which includes post-production and visual effects (VFX). Within all of these facets of the film industry sits an opportunity that we may not see again: an opportunity to kick-start the future of film in Columbus and Ohio. Let's start to look beyond a few large productions each year in Ohio. Let's look at an industry that provides thousands of jobs and millions of dollars across film, animation, VFX, AR, VR, post production, and gaming. The film industry in Ohio IS NOT about Hollywood. It’s about local jobs, local support services, and a LOCAL sustainable industry fed by local talent, crew, and graduates of Ohio schools. ** DETAILED SCHEDULE AND PANELIST LIST COMING SOON **
