The same great state tax incentives apply in our area. Our moderate climate lends itself to year round filming. During the recent hurricanes, our thirteen northeast Louisiana parishes experienced no lost work days. Area government agencies are ready and willing to assist productions and our commission is dedicated to eliminating any red tape.

Louisiana offers a 30% transferable credit for total in-state expenditures related to the production of a motion picture. An additional 5% labor tax credit can be earned on the payroll of Louisiana residents that are employed by a state certified motion picture production. The tax credits are fully transferable and Louisiana has no limit to the amount of tax credits that can be earned by a single production.
