A NEW ENGLAND 411!

INDEX

If your film is set in New England, it will be impossible to duplicate what your story calls for anywhere else. The production community in all six New England states welcomes major studios and executive producers to have a closer look and find out what shooting in New England is all about. Boston neighborhoods became characters of their own in Clint Eastwood’s MYSTIC RIVER. We thank him for bringing the whole of his principal photography to the region. We can’t imagine the film anywhere else, and certainly not in Toronto for Boston. Producers also find a solid crew base and talented and well-trained actors here. For a story set in New England, contact one of these film offices dedicated to assisting you.

NEW ENGLAND 2004 STATE FILM OFFICES 

CONNECTICUT: Connecticut Film is a division of the Connecticut Commission on Culture, Arts, History, Tourism and Film. Connecticut Film markets areas in the state that have potential as production locations or sites where production centers may build. Connecticut Film works with state agencies, local municipalities, regional film support offices and tourism to assist film and media projects.

Connecticut offers fresh locations with diverse scenery and a relatively mild climate with four full seasons, all within short driving distances. Regional and local film support is available through the coordination of Connecticut Film with low or no-cost fees at many locations. Connecticut is home to an experienced crew base, over 2000 entertainment and media production companies with more than 20,000 employees, and state-of-the-art production and post production facilities, all conveniently located near New York City and Boston. Available services include on-line production guide at www.CTfilm.com (also available on CD-ROM), library of locations for filming, regional and local film support services, industry news and job opportunities via the website and promotion of local film festivals, seminars and workshops. Tax exemptions and business assistance includes no sales and use tax on many film production-related products and film services, five-year property tax exemption on qualifying production equipment, tourism tax waived after 30 days, state and local programs to develop new and expanding business-entertainment and enterprise zones.

Recent productions include feature films Paramount Pictures THE STEPFORD WIVES Holds Barred Productions/Samuel Goldwyn Co. “Stateside”, televison productions “Jeapordy! Collegiate Championships at Yale” (Sony), “Trace Evidendece: The Files of Dr. Henry Lee” (KLS Productions/Court TV), “My Life is a Sitcom” (Nash Entertainment/ABC Family), commercials for Microsoft (HSI Productions), Sears (cYclops Productions), ESPN (Hungry Man Productions) and Bertucci’s (Plum Productions) as well as numerous independent shorts and features, still photo shoots and student films.

MAINE: The mission of The Maine Film Office is to bring Film, Television, photographic and other media projects to Maine. It is a division of The Maine Office of Tourism and The Maine Department of Economic and Community Development.
Maine has enjoyed a record year in spending on film, television and other media projects. Preliminary figures indicate that in 2003, Maine garnered direct spending of $18.46 million and an indirect economic impact of $46.1 million from regional, national and international projects, said Lea Girardin, director of The Maine Film Office. The 2003 spending was the best of any year since The Maine Film Office was founded in 1988.

“There are many reasons we had such a great year,” Girardin said. “Chief among them was the HBO film "Empire Falls." That project alone produced a significant portion of the spending. However, Maine also did very well with other projects. We had a smaller independent project, FOUR CORNERS OF SUBURBIA film in southern Maine. Washington County hosted the ambitious PBS series "Colonial House." Other TV projects – including works for The Discovery Channel and A&E – were shot all over the state. And Maine enjoyed a resurgence in large commercial and catalog projects.”

An independent feature film, THE 12 DOGS OF CHRISTMAS began shooting in western Maine and Portland in March. “The producers of this holiday film want to have snow for some of the scenes,” Lea Girardin said. “So everything is moving fast.” The film was written and is being directed by Keith Merrill, an accomplished filmmaker and winner for the 1974 Academy Award for best feature-length documentary. Merrill adapted a very popular children’s book into a 1930s-period motion picture. Lily Tomlin and Dolly Parton are slated to star in the film.

The Maine Film Office web site’s centerpiece is their On-Line Production Guide. The Guide is the state’s primary resource for the Film and TV industry.

MASSACHUSETTS: The Massachusetts Sports & Entertainment Commission (MSEC), a not-for-profit organization, was established in 1992 upon the recommendation of Governor William F. Weld’s Sports Advisory Council as the Massachusetts Sports Partnership. In July of 2003, the State Legislature added the responsibility of the television and film industry. The mission of the MSEC is to enrich the region and enhance the quality of life for all citizens of Massachusetts through the development and growth of sports and entertainment.

MSEC will work with production studios to encourage and facilitate television, film, commercial and music events and projects in Massachusetts. MSEC will help serve as a governmental liaison, assist with location scouts, with permitting and vendor referrals. 

For more information contact Mark Drago at mdrago@masports.com

The City of Boston provides permitting services for Boston through the Mayor’s Office of Special Events, Tourism and Film.

RHODE ISLAND: The Rhode Island Film and TV Office is now part of The Rhode Island State Council on the Arts (RISCA). As we go to press, Steven Feinberg has stepped into the first day of the position of Deputy Director/Manager of the Rhode Island Film & Television Office. Feinberg, a native of Cranston, will be responsible for attracting feature films and television programs to the Ocean State.

Randall Rosenbaum, the Executive Director of RISCA, told IMAGINE, “We are delighted to have someone of Steven’s experience and connections to the film industry leading this important economic development effort.”

Feinberg’s strongest asset, according to his many supporters in the Los Angeles film community, is his passion for the Ocean State. One industry vice president describes him as Rhode Island’s “ambassador to Los Angeles.”

Modern filming began with CRASH DIVE, a 1943 20th Century Fox movie starring Tyrone Power, Anne Baxter, Dana Andrews, and Henry Morgan. To date, there is a long list of major studio films shot on location in the State. 

For more details email steven@arts.ri.gov

VERMONT: The Vermont Film Commission was created in 1996 by the State Legislature to attract and assist incoming film, television, commercial and still productions to Vermont. The office works to promote the growth of its indigenous film and video industry. The process of attracting and servicing productions involves working with Vermont’s resources and its communities.

The Vermont Film Commission is proud of its role in making Vermont a film friendly State. They have worked hard over the years to create and maintain an extensive database of suppliers, crew-base and State resources available to film productions. This past year the beautiful State of Vermont has attracted dozens of productions including television programs for the Discovery Channel, the Food Network, BBC, Australian Television, ESPN, Outdoor Adventure, and Good Morning America.

We also played host to numerous feature length film shoots including Michael Burke’s THE MUDGE BOY, which was selected to screen at the 2003 Sundance Film Festival. In fact, two Vermont filmmakers previewed films at Sundance, Michael Burke and Sergie Bassine! Vermont wants to service your next production with professionalism, a friendly attitude and maple syrup.
