  • Building the NC Film Workforce: The Film Partnership of North Carolina
    Mar 5 2025

    A well-trained and experienced workforce is vital to growing the NC Film/TV industry. The Film Partnership of North Carolina is a nonprofit that offers training and PAID internships to state residents who want to put their skills (from carpentry and electrical to makeup and catering) to use on live movie and television sets.

    Partnership President Susi Hamilton and Treasurer Lauren Vilchik tell us all about it.

    Visit FilmPartnershipNC.org to learn more about the organization and how you can support it!

    Film and series projects mean jobs and local spending, which is why many states offer incentives to production companies. North Carolina is no exception. But how effective is NC's current rebate program? What more could be done to spur growth in the Film & TV industry across the state?

    Eric Johnson, SVP of Sound and Engagement, Trailblazer
    Kristi Ray, Co-founder, Honey Head Films
    Erika Arlee, Co-founder, Honey Head Films
