MID-ATLANTIC FILM INCENTIVES

UTILIZE RECOGNIZABLE CITYSCAPES, ROLLING APPALACHIAN LANDSCAPES AND PLENTIFUL WATER LOCALES IN THIS REGION

Home to New York City (one of the densest creative hubs in the world), charming coastal towns and everything in between, the Mid-Atlantic region can accommodate projects with any setting. Whether you need to utilize the iconic skyline of Manhattan or Washington, D.C., or if you seek an underutilized main street or waterfront dock, this area will be able to accommodate. Many of the states here offer comprehensive tax incentives and large pools of local talent.

Maryland

Delectable fresh crabs and the picturesque Chesapeake Bay comprise the east. Sprawling horse farms and Baltimore and D.C. are situated to the west. Maryland boasts prime filming locations throughout the Free State for any project. The riveting true story The Social Network and the action-comedy The Night Watchmen chose Maryland’s landscape for filming on-location for such reasons. Since 2000, 78 films have been shot here, along with five television shows. Maryland’s close proximity to Washington, D.C. is incentive enough for some, as the district has strict filming laws. If popping over to Washington for a few shots isn’t feasible, the city of Baltimore makes for a great stand-in. Learn more at the Maryland Film Office.
