1. Help Colorado! Film Incentives Video Collaboration
1 month ago
Please like this video to help support film incentives in Colorado! Share with everyone!

February 8th, as filmmakers, content creators, and local businesses, we will stand together on the steps of the Colorado State Capitol to show the legislators our support for the new film incentives in Colorado.

Currently Colorado is 46th out of 50 states in terms of film incentives, ahead of just a few states that don’t have incentives at all.

No feature film has utilized the current incentives in Colorado for the last 4 years.

Currently we have a 10% incentive and aim to increase it to 20%.

When Georgia increased from 10 to 20% in 2008, they went from $229 million film related dollars to $2.9 billion. In one year.

This is our year Colorado. Let's build our film community.
