Incentives

The State of Georgia has made healthy tax incentives available to those in the film business interested in investing in the state.

The Georgia Entertainment Industry Investment Act (HB 1100) grants base tax credit to qualified productions, as well as additional credits for employing Georgia talent and shooting in underdeveloped counties. It is available not only to traditional motion picture projects such as feature films, television series, commercials and music videos, but also innovative new industries such as game development and animation.

The Georgia Entertainment Industry Investment Act offers an across the board flat tax credit of 20 percent based on a minimum investment of $500,000 on qualified productions in Georgia. An additional 10 percent Georgia Entertainment Promotion (GEP) uplift can be earned by including an imbedded animated Georgia logo on approved projects.
