Primary Responsibility
“to attract film and video production to an area in order to accrue locally-realized benefits from hiringlocal crews and talent, renting local equipment, usingHotel rooms, rental cars, catering services, or anynumber of goods and services supplied on location.”

Brief History• The first film commissions were formed in the United States during
the late 1940's, when Hollywood began to move away from studios and onto location.
• As a result, there was need for film companies to have a local government liaison to coordinate local services such as police, state troopers and highway patrols, road and highway departments, fire departments, park rangers and all of the other essential municipal and government services for shooting a production on location.
• At the same time, jurisdictions realised that there was potential economic value from attracting the film industry, and they required a vehicle to market their offerings.

What’s in a name?The term “Film Commission” came about because these offices emerged from a form of municipal government that was once common in the United States known as “City Commission Government.” In a city commission government, voters elected a small team of Commissioners who, as a group, were responsible for taxation, appropriations, ordinances, and other general functions.
As individuals, the same Commissioners were also assigned responsibility for a specific aspect of municipal affairs, such as public works, finance, or public safety (remember Police Commissioner Gordon in Batman?)
Once Film was accepted as a Municipal responsibility, one of the Commissioners became the Film Commissioner, and the relative departmentbecame the Film Commission.
