It is extremely important that Utah initiates a film package incentive that is at it's most competitive with other states. Filmakers love Utah, and Utah has so much more scenic variety and advantages on many different levels. But the bottom line will always be money,money,money. The film industry's monetary return to the State is significantly greater than the investment. Let's get going with an upgraded incentive package, and get those T.V. series producing in Utah. We should have at least three or four series going right now.
