Film Friendly Workshop

Holiday Inn 5275 E 42nd, Odessa
Humanities

The agenda will include: An overview of current film incentives in Texas Guidance on how to become “Film Friendly” A session with a Texas film producer about what he looks for when choosing a community for filming Attendees will be city representatives from our region who either want to become Film Friendly or need continuing education hours to maintain their certification. Discover Odessa already holds the Film Friendly Certification, but we are eager to build on it. Film tourism is an area we have only just begun to explore. With Odessa being the home of Friday Night Lights and Taylor Sheridan’s Landman generating so much attention, this is a timely opportunity we cannot afford to miss. This event does not require your presence, but we wanted you to be aware and to know that you are very welcome to attend if it sparks your interest. Registration opens at 8:00 AM Opening remarks at 9:00 AM Breakfast and lunch provided Programming concludes at 3:45 PM Small gathering at The Board Room, 5:00–7:00 PM If you are interested in attending, please let me know so we can plan accordingly
