The reason for these films and series shooting locations often depends on tax incentives, and not where the story is actually set. Tax incentives are a huge driver for choosing particular shoot locations, and there are certain criteria that need to be met in order to access tax incentives, such as hiring a certain percentage of labor locally. Tax incentives are incredibly helpful and crucial to the funding of films and series, but can also be complicated\u003c\/span\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cdcdcd;\"\u003eIt’s important to understand how various tax incentives work, because a lot goes into deciding where to shoot and how to piece together projects based on these incentives. They’re a big part of funding projects. Understanding the criteria, how to properly fill out applications, working with local film funds and associations, knowing what is due when, and knowing when money flows back to you are just some of the pieces that go into putting together a film or series as it relates to tax incentives. If your head is spinning a little, don’t worry. With the right guidance, this will all make sense to you and you’ll be on your way to making sure you make the most out of the appropriate tax incentives for your next projects.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cdcdcd;\"\u003eViviana Zarragoitia is the Vice President of Three Point Capital, one of the entertainment industry's top financiers that specializes in senior lending on film and television projects.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cdcdcd;\"\u003e Through Three Point, Viviana closes the financing on every film that the company is involved in.
