I'm producing in Texas

Welcome to Texas, y'all. We're your boots on the ground. Let us run the paperwork that keeps your production on track and keeps the Texas grant file clean while you shoot.

I'm an independent filmmaker

Start with the blueprint. We turn your script into a breakdown, a budget and a schedule somebody can say yes to. Twenty minutes on the phone tells you which piece you need.

PRODUCTION SYSTEM

An Easy System for Independent Production

One breakdown feeds the schedule. The schedule feeds the budget. The budget feeds the report the state asks for at the end. Nothing gets rebuilt at each stage, which is why nothing goes missing.

The Texas incentive, in plain terms.

Scientific Calculator Held

Texas pays a cash grant on qualifying in-state spend, and the rate is set by what you spend here rather than by your budget. On a film or series it is 5% once eligible Texas spend reaches $250,000, 10% at $1 million, and 25% at $1.5 million, with additional awards on top for projects that hit their thresholds. The Commission decides who qualifies. What we do is the work that earns it: the residency forms, the location days, the vendor records and the submission. Read against the Texas Film Commission, September 2026. The 35% steps to 40% on September 1, 2027.
