The Ohio FIlm Boom Fueled by Tax incentives
The Ohio Film Office on Thursday once again touted the state’s ability to attract film productions with its incentives, saying it has secured four independent films, including projects starring Josh Radnor, Kim Basinger and Val Kilmer, that will shoot in Ohio.
That will bring the total number of films, TV series and commercials tapping into Ohio’s Motion Picture Tax Credit, an incentives program that launched in fiscal year 2010, to 24.
The new projects are expected to hire nearly 900 Ohioans, according to state officials.
