This interesting newspaper editorial article came my way via my email inbox via The Hartford Courant and Google Alerts wherein the Courant calls on the Connecticut Commission on Culture and Tourism to clarify its placing Film Commissioner Heidi Hamilton effective August 21st.
The problem seems to involve questions of internal policy matters at CT state government levels and I would presume (or would at least hope) that the matter is under review by an authority in the CT state government in a position to decide who followed or mis-followed policy.
In the meantime, tho I have not personally dealt with the CT Film Office lately, Ms. Hamilton is likely sorely missed by the film production industry specifically with regard to productions with potential to film in CT.
Ms. Hamilton has been very innovative in attracting new film production business to the state by way of considerable tax breaks and other film office services available to filmmakers.
