NYPA in Action

NYPA has been in the forefront of issues affecting the production industry whether in Albany or at City Hall.

NYPA and its members were strong supporters of New York State and City tax incentives for film and television production. The Alliance was an instrumental part of the campaign to convince the Governor, State legislators, as well as the Mayor and City Council that the proposal incentives would create new jobs. To date, the City’s “Made in NY”™ program, alone, has had a direct economic impact of $950 million with more than 400 new vendors joining since its launch. New York State has 113 active projects and the city reports shoot days up from 23,321 in 2004 to 31,570 in 2005. Learn more...
