Lexington, Kentucky Seeking Productions Of Up To $10 Million With State Tax Credit


Lexington, Kentucky wants to lure indie film and productions in the $1 million to $10 million range.

It’s a complicated time with TV production well off its highs, indie film challenged and projects moving overseas, a trend accelerated by the strikes. The area boasts abundantly diverse landscapes and real-life backdrops that serve as a façade for any genre — from bustling, urban cityscapes to quaint small towns frozen in time; and from rolling bluegrass hills and lush forests to castles, battlefields and abandoned rickhouses [used to store bourbon]. “Partners like VisitLEX are helping to show the world that great things are happening here in the commonwealth, and the creation of FilmLEX proves entertainment production will be a big part of our growing economy.”
