SPI to Conduct Analysis and Economic Impact Assessment of the Texas Moving Image Industry Incentive Program

AMC’s The Son (2017-2019) filmed throughout Central Texas

Olsberg·SPI (SPI) has been commissioned by the Texas Film Commission and the Texas Economic Development Corporation to undertake an economic impact assessment of the Texas Moving Image Industry Incentive Program (TMIIIP).

The study will consider the holistic impact of the incentive programme, including macro economic impacts, such as GVA and employment, and broader evidence and analysis of screen production’s strategic value to the State of Texas. 

In addition to the macro-economic impact analysis, SPI will also deliver:

• A ripple analysis examining how incentivised production spend is flowing into economic sectors outside of the screen production sector

• Heatmapping analysis to show the geographical impacts of incentivised production spend

• Comparison of how and where the Texas screen production sector and incentive offer are positioned compared to other select US states and international territories.                                                                                                                 

Alongside the analysis, the study will provide a series of recommendations for the development of the screen production sector in the state.
