Here's what local leaders say about how our film festival helps to foster local prosperity.
"Getting Hollywood to Sacramento to shoot movies is huge boost to regional economic prosperity. A Single location shoot can make a significant financial impact to area businesses. The Sacramento Festival of Cinema has been the best friend to film producers in our area that we could possibly imagine. I applaud them for their vision and support of major film production in Northern California."
Kathleen Dodge - Film Commissioner, El Dorado County Co.
"The Sacramento Festival of Cinema encourages independent and Hollywood-based film production in Sacramento. Access Sacramento, the festival's organizer, is a strong partner in fostering local production and we encourage area businesses to support their efforts. Film production enhances Sacramento's image and contributes to the well-being of our economy."
Lucy Steffens - Sacramento Film Commissioner
"How do film festivals support local economy? Movie production brings international exposure, valuable new revenues and, most importantly, shared pride to a local community. What better way to attract this type of industry into the Sacramento region than a film festival that features our creative talent, our diverse geography and our boundless enthusiasm?"
