Golden State at the Golden Globes, Film & Television Tax Credit awardees spotlight California’s Star Power

SACRAMENTO – Recently, the nominees for the 83rd annual Golden Globes were announced. Four awardees of the California Film Commission’s  Film and Television Tax Credit Program collected honors in one category after another. Earlier this year, Governor Newsom more than doubled California’s Film and Television Tax Credit Program — from $330 million to $750 million — and implemented key updates to keep production, below-the-line jobs, and investment rooted in the state. California offers one of the nation’s largest incentives for film and television production, supporting communities across the state while bringing to life stories as bold and rich as the places they’re filmed.

California’s commitment to local production 

In November, Governor Newsom announced 17 television projects selected for tax credits, which is expected to bring in $1.2 billion to California’s economy. The California Film and Television Tax Credit Program maintains California’s competitive edge in the creative economy while continuing to champion workforce diversity provisions, more funding for the Career Pathways Training Program, and the nation’s first Safety on Production Pilot Program. 

Since its inception in 2009, the tax credit program has generated over $30.6 billion in economic activity and supported more than 228,000 cast and crew jobs across the state. In years past, for every dollar of tax credit awarded, California has seen massive returns — $24.40 in economic output, $16.14 in GDP and $8.60 in wages. The California Film Commission (CFC) administers the Film & Television Tax Credit Program.
