Our commitment to service for film and video production extends to all projects: commercial, television and feature. The film office acts as a central contact for location and production information.
The region is comprised of 16 counties, with Charlotte serving as its hub. Carolina blue skies are only surpassed by the area’s undeniable Southern hospitality.
