This isn’t a “wait and see” moment—Texas is open for business with a record-breaking $1.5B film incentive program

Texas Film Incentives Are Back—And It’s Time to Make Your Move

We’re talking $150 million a year for the next 10 years. And for the first time, TV commercials, streaming series, indie films, and video games all qualify. Translation: your community is about to get a whole lot more interesting to location scouts and production teams.

Let’s break it down:

How We Help Turn $1.5B Into Big Wins for Your Community

We don’t deal in guesswork or half-baked plans. We build smart, focused strategies that get your community camera-ready—and keep it in the spotlight.

Here’s what we bring to the table:

We’ll help you pitch your best spots, create a reel that actually gets watched, and package it with soft incentives (think local discounts and VIP treatment).

We’ll streamline your process so producers don’t get tangled in red tape. Plus, we’ll help you build a searchable database of locations, crews, and services—so when a scout calls, you’re ready.

We’ll help you create training programs and certifications that make sure your locals are ready to work on set.

We’ll help you tell the story—through campaigns, social, PR, and content—so fans want to visit where their favorite shows and movies were filmed.

We’ll help you track the impact: jobs created, visitor spend, room nights booked. You’ll have the numbers to back it all up—and make the case for future investment.

Bottom line: You’ve got the incentives. We’ll help you turn them into real economic wins.
