GREAT NEWS FOR TEXAS' MOVING IMAGE INDUSTRY!
Break out the bubbly, gang, our production incentives bill HB 873 was passed Friday and will be signed by Governor Perry this Thursday, April 23. It will take effect immediately. This unique bill allows the Texas Film Commission to set the percentages.
Texas, the sleeping giant of production, is now waking up. It has been a long nap, but watch out world, here we come! Perfect time to have a major production studio in the neighborhood, don't you think? Think Astrodome Studios!
The transformation of this legendary building into a massive motion picture and sound recording production facility, with tenants representing every support service needed, will not only help revitalize our state's industry but will create a center of commerce for our industry that will be recognized around the world.
To sign the online petition that supports this concept, as well as to request information on becoming a tenant or investor, go to www.astrodomestudios.net. Astrodome Studios will bring more production and more jobs to Houston and Texas. Spread the word.
