Variety: Show business vendors have rallied in the San Fernando Valley in the middle of a warm weekend with promises to support legislation to sweeten California’s film tax credit program.
Organizers said more than 600 attendees came to the Saturday rally at prop house Independent Studio Services in Sunland — three weeks after the introduction of Assembly Bill 1839, aimed at overhauling the current incentive program and attracting bigger movies and TV series. Speakers urged the audience to press their legislators on the issue, stressing that the tax credits are essential to keep productions from being lured out of state and that the credits provide a major boost to the Golden State’s economic health.
