Lights Camera Action– Why More Hollywood Movies aren't shot in Sacramento
Sactown magazine has a great article on why there aren’t more Hollywood movies shot in Sacramento and shows what some local filmmakers are doing to change it (Including the filmmakers from Redwood Palms Pictures and Joe Carnahan and Deon Taylor).
Sacramento mayor Heather Fargo’s support for filmmaking is described as “anemic,” this despite the positive economic impact of having films shoot in Sacramento. Just across the county line, the El Dorado County Film Commision works hard to bring films to El Dorado County– maybe Sacramento should pay attention.
Check it out if you get a chance (sorry– it is not on the web– but I guess that is how they sell magazines, right)?
