About this Event
The Texas Film Commission is excited to welcome Texas community representatives to the Film Friendly Texas Forum taking place at the New Braunfels Convention Center on May 16, 2024.
This two-day event will provide existing Film Friendly Texas certified communities with curriculum that furthers their participation within the program and will serve as an invitation for statewide communities to deepen their knowledge of the media production industries in Texas and begin the Film Friendly Texas certification process.
Additionally, attendees of the Film Friendly Texas Forum who have already received Film Friendly Texas certification will be among the first to learn all about our newest community development initiative, the Digital Media Friendly Texas program, and learn more about how to best ensure their community will be primed and ready to support Digital Media production in their area.
