The State of Georgia, a leader in global film production, has been using its signature partnership approach working with the public and private sector to produce film opportunities. Results can be seen year-round in every corner of the state.
During the last two fiscal years alone, Georgia has celebrated at least $8.5 billion in direct production spending across the state, and a recent study found that for every $1 spent in Georgia, $6 was returned on its investment. Growth in the state’s film business spurred an estimated $1.03 billion in statewide capital investment in studio and soundstage space across 14 studio campuses since 2023.
