The landscape of film and commercial production in Texas is shifting in a big way, and Fort Worth is now at the center of it all. With the launch of new state incentives and the exciting announcement of Fort Worth’s massive new studio complex (SGS / Sheridan’s Studio), the opportunities for agencies, production companies, and creatives have never been greater.
Join us for an inside look with Red Sanders, President of Red Productions. A Fort Worth native and longtime champion of visual storytelling, Red will share how this landmark project came together, what it means for our creative community, and—most importantly—how your agency or production company can leverage the new incentives to bring more projects to life.
This program is not only a celebration of Fort Worth’s growing creative influence, but also a practical roadmap for agencies and producers looking to maximize opportunities in Texas’s evolving film and commercial market.
