Covid and The Film Industry

 IN MY OPINION:

WILLIAM REYNOLDS:

COVID 19 AND THE GA FILM INDUSTRY>>

During fiscal year 2021, pent-up demand from the COVID-19 hiatus helped the industry set a new record with $4 billion in direct spending on productions in the state.

“Because Georgia was the first state in the country to re-open our economy and worked with film productions across the state to ensure they could safely continue operations, the Peach State’s film industry is leading the nation. As the top state for business for an unprecedented eighth year in a row, the jobs, economic development, and investment in film and other supporting industries are a key part of Georgia’s success story. This record-breaking announcement also highlights Georgia’s incredible momentum in economic recovery as we emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic.” Governor Brian Kemp
