With standing room only at the Multimedia Conference Room of the Tijuana Cultural Center (Cecut) the panelists gave their opinions and answered questions about our growing film industry.
The general consensus was that Baja California has a very significant Film Activity with the potential to surpass other world film production destinations (like Canada and New Zealand) and become a major player in the world film industry because of it's vast richness of locations unequaled by others (Beaches, Lakes, Dams, Desserts, Farms, Mountains, Forests, Parks, Ports, City, etc.), along with a World Class Studio Facility (Baja Studios in Rosarito), Experienced Bilingual Crew, our closeness to Hollywood, California (we are about 2 hours away driving by car) and all round great climate. Plus, the new State Government has shown a great deal of interest in making this industry grow further to become a principal economic venue for Baja California.

The other major topic discussed was the need to further support and encourage Productions by local filmmakers and finding the right financial means to drive this onward so our local talent can see their stories shown on the Big Screen.
For all the students and future filmmakers that attended, it was a wonderful networking opportunity. For all of us that make this our livelihood, it was really great confirming that Baja is indeed growing as a Film Industry.
