2016 marks the 100th year anniversary of the first film ever shot in the Humboldt-Del Norte Region. It was a silent, black & white series entitled
"A Lass of the Lumberlands" and it was filmed in Arcata and Eureka. We've come such a long way since then, but the natural beauty of our region hasn't changed. The time has never been better to film in Humboldt and Del Norte Counties!
