The Association of Film Commissioners International targets worldwide production opportunities by expanding its programming and invitees.
Held from Aug. 25-28 at UCLA’s Meyer & Renee Luskin Conference Center, the event will feature more than 142 film commissions from all over the globe as it seeks to enhance connections between the commissioners and key players incontent production.
