Youre a few years late. This was happening a couple years ago but now it is experiencing a downturn as well.

Direct production spending in the state dropped from a 2022 peak of $4.4 billion to just $2.3 billion in FY25

You must not have been paying attention the past 2 years if you think the Georgia film industry is thriving....

The obvious answer is the correct one. The unions made domestic production cost prohibitive with their great "wins" after the last round of labor negotiations.. More production is going to Canada, the UK, Australia, and Eastern Europe.

The industry gets to stack local and national incentives plus lower labor costs and favorable echange rates overseas. Congrats IATSE your knew standards agreement guarantees grips $80 an hour, but the contract guarantees 0 hours at that rate.

And that is a 2 year lag. That drop is just the drop from the post covid surge to a return to normal production levels. They havent even seen the effects of the post strike domestic downtrurn.

Yeah, it's gonna be worse now that Marvel and Warner are leaving town (or at least significantly reducing their footprint)

This is expected and well deserved. If you consistently come up with unoriginal, uninteresting pile of shite movies since Covid started, then you deservedly should lose your job. That simple.
