Finally, some news about keeping the magic of TV right here in California! We just heard something big. The Television Academy? Yes, that one. They’re officially backing a new tax credit bill. This is a huge deal.
This awesome news came out at a California Post Alliance (CAPA) town hall. Assemblyman Nick Schultz was right there in Burbank. He’s really pushing for this. “We should have done this a decade ago,” he said. Strong words.
This bill is all about keeping post-production work local. Think editing, sound, special effects – the stuff that makes your favorite shows look and sound amazing. It helps keep that vibrant, creative energy right where it belongs. Imagine the bright, dynamic aesthetic of new shows staying rooted right here, instead of going elsewhere.
Burbank was buzzing Friday night. This kind of move keeps the industry alive and kicking in our state. It’s about securing future stories, beautifully made. It’s smart business.
Our Take
We’re super excited about this. It’s a really smart move. It protects local talent and keeps those specialized jobs here. It just makes sense for California to keep its creative edge. It also means we get to keep seeing that unique California sparkle in our shows. For us, it’s a no-brainer. A definite step in the right direction!
