SUMMARY:Film Industry Opportunities for Small Business
DESCRIPTION:The film and TV industry are often thought of as being glamorous\, but it’s called an “industry” for a reason. Film is big business and the West Virginia incentives make it one of the most competitive places to film in the world. If it’s a large Hollywood production\, or a local TV commercial\, film production can provide special opportunities for our local small businesses. Film crews need\, caterers\, accounts\, builders\, tax credit brokers\, electricians\, drivers\, and more. They also need things like housing\, facilities\, generators\, and parking. Join us for a look at what opportunities are available for small businesses to support the film industry and what you can do to position your business to capitalize on these opportunities.  \nAllegheny Image Factory – https://webuildstories.com/ \nRobert Tinnell | Founder – Allegheny Image Factory  \nhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/robert-tinnell-2147463/ \nRobert Tinnell is an award-winning writer\, director\, producer\, and graphic novelist whose career spans feature films\, television\, and publishing.
