Abstract:

Since the North Carolina Film Office was created in 1980, over 800 motion pictures, 14 network and cable television series and countless television commercials have been made in the state. The film industry has generated over $7 billion for local economy. The industry revenues peaked in 1993, and competing states and other countries has lured business away from North Carolina. Wright discusses the current resurgence of the industry around the state.
