- A bill was introduced today by Rep Terri Collins (Decatur) to amend the Entertainment Act of 2009 by increasing the film incentives. Currently the maximum per project amount that is allowed is $10 million, this bill raises that limit to $20 million.
- The annual cap for incentives granted under the Act is currently $10 million. The bill would also raise this cap to $15 million for FY 2013; $20 million for FY2014; and $25 million for fiscal years thereafter.
- This is a Film Office (and ADO) bill. We hope that increasing these numbers will attract larger films and more TV series which create jobs in our state. We appreciate everyone’s support and hope you will please ask your representatives to vote “yes” on this bill…thank you all!
