Advantage, PA

You’ve seen a lot of Pennsylvania, even if you don’t know it. That’s because the only thing PA needs is a vision to shape it into Gotham City, the Devil’s Playground or a perfectly anonymous slice of suburbia. Whatever you want it to be, it comes with a great tax credit and our state’s keystone: supportive, friendly people.

Film Tax Credit

Pennsylvania offers a 25% tax credit to productions that spend at least 60% of their total budget in the Commonwealth.

Projects eligible for Film Tax Credits under the program are: the production of a feature film, a television film, a television talk show or game show series, a television commercial, a television pilot or each episode of a television series intended as programming for a national audience.

Uniquely PA

We know PA can look like almost anywhere else. It can also look distinctively like itself. Flashdance, Silver Linings Playbook and Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen showcased our unique state.

The advantages don’t stop there—PA offers its state facilities as fee-free areas for filming and has many areas that you can film without a permit.
