I think that the boost in film shoots happening in Oklahoma is really incredible and so exciting. My father grew up a cowboy in the Oklahoma panhandle on his parent’s farm and I still have a lot of family who live there so I regularly visit. I think that Oklahoma is an absolutely gorgeous state and really lends itself to film with its prairies and grasslands and towns. Not to mention Oklahoma City which is fairly large itself. I think that Oklahoma definitely has its problems but I also believe that it has often been discounted as a flyover state, a place with nothing to really offer to arts and entertainment beyond the crops that will be used at craft services. So it is so exciting to see people finally investing in them. Making Oklahoma into an actual place in the minds of East coast and West coast people instead of a nebulous concept of rural people.
