Well known as the world's premier tourist destination, Metro
Orlando is also a leading destination for film, television and
commercial production. State-of-the-art soundstages and unique
venues have helped the region become one of the busiest production
centers in the United States. Year-round filming capabilities, a
highly-skilled local crew base, and supportive local communities
have helped advance this region's reputation as one of the world's
best.
With skilled crew, diverse locations, world-class studios,
specialized service companies, the Metro Orlando region offers the
very best to film and television producers. It is no wonder that,
in the past 17 years, this region has grown from a $2.5 million to
a $845.5 million annual production market. Today, more than 3,400
Metro Orlando employees are engaged in film and television
production-related activities.
Complementing this high-profile industry is a significant,
emerging digital
media sector that will serve to broaden the base of this
community's creative development offerings.
The EDC's Film, Television and Digital Media Production
team—known worldwide as the Metro Orlando Film & Entertainment
Commission—aggressively markets the region as a top production
location. This team provides one-stop services, ranging from
location scouting to stream-lined permitting. In addition,
immediate answers to questions about film and television production
in Metro Orlando are available 24/7 through filmorlando.com.
This online version of The Orlando Filmbook provides
