Global Production Incentives Overview & Update

About this program
Film and television production incentives are shifting fast, and the choices made about where to shoot now carry real financial and legal weight. This program breaks down how production incentive programs work across the United States and internationally, including tax credits, rebates, and the qualifying rules that determine whether a production captures the value it expects. An SVP and practice leader in production incentives walks through the current landscape, recent legislative and policy developments, and the practical considerations attorneys advising producers and studios need to understand. Attendees will leave with a clear framework for evaluating incentive opportunities and spotting the issues that most often trip up productions.
This OnDemand CLE program earns 1 hour of General credit in California. It aired August 12, 2026 and features Joseph Chianese and Keith Kelly.
