Re: Come film in my town! What do you need

Brett: This is an old post so I doubt if you will see this, but I'll put in my two cents since my dad was the chaplain at YRMC for 17 years and I lived there as well for some time.
No one mentioned the L.A.411. That is where art departments and directors and producers go when considering locations. No one can top Texas' aggressive incentives for filmmakers. What Yuma has that you did not mention is ghost towns (Chocolate mts.) the proving grounds, Marine base, orange groves, etc. What film companies want are cheap motels rates at nice hotels (Stardust) and local savvy work force and most of all no charge police and fire help. Phil Clark used to be the mayor. Whoever it is now-start there.
