Washington Film Works
Governor Gregoire signed new legislation today raising the state film incentive to 30%, making Washington State exponentially more competitive as a filming location. Film projects coming into the region because of the increase will immediately create hundreds of high-wage local jobs and will help to bring significant economic development to Washington State in the form of immediate production spending in the local economy. “The additional incentives provided in this legislation will make Washington state much more competitive in the film industry,” Gregoire said. “For every industry, Washington must do what it can to attract new business and create new jobs. Along with Washington’s beautiful locations, this legislation ensures our state is providing the right business environment that’s appealing to producers and directors.”
