New York State Tax Incentives on Production and Post
(40-50% BACK)

One of the Best Reasons to Film Here.

 

Chautauqua NY offers one of the most competitive film and TV tax incentive programs on Production and Post in the country.

With extraordinary location diversity, a highly film-friendly environment, and access to a certified stage facility at Northwest Arena in Jamestown, productions can increasingly develop, shoot, and edit projects right here in Chautauqua County.

The incentive program is a powerful tool for producers. But when it comes to the latest requirements, eligibility details, application procedures, and official guidance, we believe the experts should be the experts.

We're filmmakers. They're the tax credit professionals.

For the most current information, program details, and application resources, please visit the New York State Motion Picture & Television Development Office.

Film Here. Save Big.
