Join us on Thursday, June 26th for the next edition of our Backstage Pass event series, where we’ll explore the dynamic transformation of the film and television industry. Our panelists will take a look back at Hollywood’s early dominance and examine how, over the past decade, Georgia has emerged as a major force in the industry.
We’ll unpack the many factors that fueled this shift—from hit series like The Walking Dead, Stranger Things, and Ozark, to blockbuster Marvel productions, and the powerful impact of Georgia’s tax incentives. It’s a story with many contributors and no single cause.
Most importantly, we’ll look ahead to what’s next. Learn how the Trilith Institute is working to empower Georgia-based creatives and build a thriving, end-to-end production ecosystem right here in the state.
