Hello, everybody I'm
PBS Wisconsin "Here & Now"
reporter Murv Seymour
on location
at the State Capitol.
Roll camera please.
Speed.
Did you know that
lawmakers here just approved
spending millions of dollars
to revive the state's
film commission?
What will it mean
for the state
that's best known for cheese?
Well, for filmmakers
camera people, actors
producers, pretty much anyone
that's involved
in film production
it could mean
a whole lot more cheddar
in the form of cash.
It also could mean
a lot more business
in tourism
for restaurants, hotels
and the
entertainment industry.
Other states are cashing in.
Why not Wisconsin?
To learn more,
watch my in-depth reporting
on Wisconsin's film tax.
Somebody needs to convince
somebody to invest
in the very
reliable investment
of filmmaking.
I'll be talking with filmmakers
from all over the state.
I'll even sit down and talk
one-on-one with
an Academy Award-winning
movie producer
whose work
you've probably seen before.

and watch my story

It could impact you.
