Five major film studios join together to create a new association, “The Georgia Studio and Infrastructure Alliance (GSIA)”.
According to Biz Journals, the Georgia Studio and Infrastructure alliance will work together to help increase Georgia’s film industry.
The Georgia Studio and Infrastructure Alliance (GSIA) will serve as a legislative and educational advocacy group for studio and production support businesses in Georgia’s film and television industry. Another focus is educating new crew members to develop a more robust crew base, which Georgia sorely needs if it wants to keep productions coming.
The alliance’s members are Eagle Rock Studios Atlanta, EUE/Screen Gems Studios Atlanta, Mailing Avenue Stageworks, Tyler Perry Studios and Triple Horse Studios. [Via]
Several months ago a producer revealed that the biggest problem with Georgia was the lack of trained crew members to work on productions filming in Georgia. However, with this new partnership with the Lt. Gov. Case Cagle and Georgia’s College and Career Academies, people can learn the skills needed to join Georgia’s growing entertainment industry.
