The Savannah area boasts a wealth of locations including the nation's largest historical district, an evergreen urban forest & unique and timeless coastal and rural settings. Being the first planned city in the U.S., Savannah has retained its original layout with 22 public squares, quaint brick streets, and an architectural timeline which dates back to 1733. Period locations abound that easily double 19th century U.S. or European cities, and our marshes and swamps have often played as Southeast Asia. The possibilities are up to you.
  
Savannah's growing infrastructure supplemented with regional resources make filming here economical as well. Permits in Savannah are cost-and hassle-free. Georgia is a Right to Work state with talented union and non-union crew, all dedicated to building a respected production center. If you would like information about additional local and regional resources, check out the Find Crew & Services section of our website .
  
The City of Savannah and the Film Commission are dedicated to giving you the best service and cooperation possible. From location scouting, research and liaising with the public, businesses and government agencies, our goal is to assist in making your project the best it can be.

Savannah is also a fun place to work. The cost of living is amazing when compared to the quality of life. That's why so many people look forward to working in Savannah again.
  
Thank you for considering Savannah for your production. Please, do not hesitate to call me with any questions or information requests. Sincerely,



Jay M. Self
