Louisiana limited its participation in a race to the bottom. Even with the reductions the state will be paying out productions which already happened for five more years. The only winners with film incentives are producers.
When states started paying productions left California, when unions made BTL labor too expensive productions left the US altogether for cheaper labor and incentives in Europe and Australia.
The only way to have a sustained film industry is to pay more than everyone else. It isn't worth it.

Where?
UK, Australia, Canada. Foreign jurisdictions offer cheaper labor, favorable exchange rates, and incentives. When you net everything out productions in a big incentive country are like 40% cheaper than an American counterpart.

My understanding is that it's turning a different shade of brown.

They should be forced to stay. They deserve each other

Atlanta and the state of Georgia is losing most of its film industry. Several reasons but mainly because you can only bribe people with taxpayer money for whatever period of time it takes for the next mark to offer even more taxpayer money. The industry brought very few actual jobs to the state and at the end of the day other than folks in the state being able to say "I know where that is...." there weren't many benefits.

The good ole days of economic stimulus reports that tried quantifying tourism multipliers …and every movie that wasn’t shot in the French quarter was intentionally dressed to make it look like it filmed somewhere else.

This is all we need in Texas, the Hollywood jackasses voting for homos like Talarico and his like.

Louisiana's tax incentive was unsustainable. It cost us money and we didn't get a lot back because most of the crews were from out of state. Just didn't make sense to spend all that money and the economic benefits were hotels and event rental businesses being slightly busier.

You are right in the effect, but very wrong in the cause. About 85-90% of crews were local residents from about 2013 until things really slowed down in late 2023. The economic benefits were spread throughout local economies where production occurred. That contrary cannot be credibly argued, but those economic benefits did not justify the massive cost.

Offering 30% tax credits on filming expenses to support a few local catering and security companies was crazy. Letting producers sell the credits to other businesses for $.90 on the dollar was lunacy.

this is what happens whenever California and New York keep voting in Democrat Socialist who hate business and thinks that anyone that makes more than $250k per year owes someone else a living.
Democrat Socialist don't build anything. they steal from others until there are no others left to steal from.
