    “Governor Corzine has eliminated funding for the New Jersey State Film Commission starting July 1st 2008.

    That means they will no longer exist after that date.

    Beginning June 30 2008, The Government of the State of New Jersey has decided to eliminate The New Jersey Motion Picture & Television Commission from the state budget -

    Filming in the state of New Jersey generated $92 Million dollars last year, money spent to employ New Jersey residents, as well as purchase goods and services from New Jersey businesses.”

    …read the rest…

    There are often HUGE misconceptions about the purpose and scope of a film office – when someone, especially perhaps a person not directly involved in the production industry (please note that word – “industry”) – hears that phrase, “film commission”, their knee-jerk reaction might be, “oh, that’s lovely – a department for the arts”… and the conventional school of thought might be, “oh, that’s lovely, but if state funds are scarce….”

    Guess again. The New Jersey Film Commission is about economic development.

    “Filming in the state of New Jersey generated $92 Million dollars last year, money spent to employ New Jersey residents, as well as purchase goods and services from New Jersey businesses.”

    That ain’t chump change.

    Filmmaking is a clean industry as well – you won’t have a movie come in and find out later they left heavy metal deposits in the ground water.

    Please contact The New Jersey Motion Picture & Television Commission today and find out how you can help save this invaluable economic resource from misguided legislative actions at New Jersey state government levels:
