Attracting major motion picture production to Minnesota by:

  • Directly lobbying the Minnesota State Legislature & thenGovernor to enact a bill of competitive incentives to be administered by the Minnesota Department of Finance.
  • Selling this program to the Legislature and the Governor as an economic stimulus program, whereby Hollywood injects cash directly into Minnesota’s economy benefiting communities throughout Minnesota.
  • Educating the public, the legislature, the media, and the press about the economic benefits major motion picture production brings in terms of jobs and revenue for local businesses and municipalities.

Major motion picture production is done in states that have enacted aggressive incentives. These incentives include rebates, sales tax abatement, free use of state property and more. Feature film producers spend hundreds of millions of dollars in these states, creating jobs, new business, and tourism.

The economic benefits of film production extend far beyond the production community. So whether you work in film or not, please join us in our mission to make Minnesota the destination for film production. After all who doesn’t want to bring millions in private sector spending to Minnesota with the jobs and economic stimulus that will result?
