Film Friendly Texas Workshop

The Film Friendly Texas Workshop is a one-day training run by the Texas Film Commission for local government staff who want their city or county certified as a Film Friendly Texas community; attending is a required step for certification. It is aimed at the person who will serve as the community's film liaison, usually from a city or county government, convention and visitors bureau, chamber of commerce or economic development corporation. Sessions cover the Texas production industry, how productions choose locations, filming guidelines, use of public property, location agreements, insurance, on-set safety and case studies. The certification program began in 2007 and counts more than 200 communities. The next workshop is November 12, 2026, in Austin, co-hosted by the ATX Television Festival.
