Austin, TX: The Third Coast

From the Austin Film Commission website:
MovieMaker magazine ranks Austin as America’s #1 filmmaking destination in its eighth annual ranking of the “Top Ten U.S. Cities to Live and Make Movies.”

More than 350 major features and made-for-television movies have been filmed in Austin over the past 20 years, not including hundreds of commercials and independent projects.

We’re proud to be part of the Austin scene. With a full service studio and creative agency, Media1250 specializes in video productions and podcasting for businesses.

The Austin Film Office assists filmmakers with scouting and securing locations for filming, and it acts as a liaison for city services such as road closures, permits, use of public property and code compliance issues. We work closely with city administrators, the local film community, Texas Film Commission, residents and businesses interests to facilitate hundreds of projects including feature films, documentaries, commercials, television films and series, music videos and reality television.
