Of

Big Impacts

We remain committed to backing homegrown talent and championing the crews and businesses that bring global content to the region.

The North East is in a good place to continue its growth, enhancing why the region is considered one of the best places to live, work and play in the UK.

Production has never been better in the North East, the growth rate is phenomenal and we already have a number of productions lined up to shoot across the North East for next year. We need to credit the success of the Production Fund in attracting production companies to the region. Once they are here, they benefit from our filming friendly region – 12 local authorities and 2 combined authorities supporting production, our breadth and quality of locations, our first class talented crew and the vital support of our film office.

We also have many indigenous companies in the region who we support such as Lonesome Pine, Twentysix 03, Film Nova, Signpost and Candle and Bell who continue to create commissionable content, employ regional teams and produce content that is viewed by global audiences. We now have 357 local supply chain companies registered on our database and we champion local businesses to all incoming productions.
