About Film Wisconsin

FILM WISCONSIN is an exciting new initiative to nurture and sustain Wisconsin's film and media industry. Film Wisconsin advocates for the industry in the global marketplace, provides information and resources on the industry, and is a technical assistance organization for individuals and organizations engaged in film, television, advertising, documentary, corporate video and still photography production in the state.

Film Wisconsin is about:

Creating jobs and economic impact
Nurturing and growing our creative workforce
Partnering with educational institutions to produce filmmakers for the future
Establishing statewide incentives to make it desirable to create films in Wisconsin
Marketing the state for all film-related work
Enhancing the image of the state through the worldwide reach of film

The mission of Film Wisconsin is to nurture, promote and advance a comprehensive Wisconsin film production industry for economic and civic gain to the state and all of its communities. Film Wisconsin, which will maintain a database of all industry professionals and film-related businesses throughout the state, will operate as a private sector not-for-profit 501(c)(6) corporation and will be overseen by film and television professionals. The office will support production companies by identifying the key economic, social and cultural benefits of basing film and television projects in Wisconsin. In addition, Film Wisconsin will work toward the further development of Wisconsin's post-production media industry and investigate emerging technologies such as electronic gaming.
