Hello, I’m Jim Glover, That Branding Guy, for Once a Day Marketing™. On our radio
show Ask Those Branding Guys, we discussed
how the state of New Mexico is capturing national market share in the film and
television industry.
Joining us on the show was Don Gray, contract location
coordinator with the New Mexico Film Office. Don is currently providing
location services for Hollywood producers and directors to attract all forms of
media production to New Mexico.
Don shared that in 2002, New Mexico made it an economic
development priority to build a thriving film industry. Providing production
incentives and loans, combined with great locations and weather, the state
started to attract Hollywood producers to shoot major motion pictures and
television series in the land of enchantment.
Over the past 12 years, major movies and TV shows have
been produced throughout the state and include: The Avengers, The Lone Ranger,
Terminator Salvation, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, True
Grit, Crazy Heart, Breaking Bad, Longmire and the currently airing Manhattan
series.
Gray noted that incentives are important to pique the
interest of producers in the world-class production services New Mexico has to offer
including state-of-the-art production studios, top-notch crews, amazing
locations, and all forms of digital editing for sound, music, animation,
special effects and video. He stressed that Hollywood is a small community and
it's important to continue to deliver a superior product every time crews film
in the state.
Don added that New Mexico's future plans to build the
production market include targeting electronic gamers and online movie makers.
He sees New Mexico remaining as a major player in the ongoing production
industry.
Enjoy the show.
