"BRINGING HOLLYWOOD HOME"

Rajiv Dalal, center, Director of The Mayor's Office of Motion Picture and Television Production, spoke at the Universal City North Hollywood Chamber of Commerce Networking Breakfast Sept. 23 at the Sportsmen's Lodge Events Center in Studio City.  Also pictured are Zaven Pogosyan and Carson Schreiber, board members.

The state's new bill to create $330 million a year in film tax credits, signed by Gov. Brown with great fanfare in Hollywood, will significantly help "to bring Hollywood home," Rajiv Dalal told members and guests at our Sept. 23 networking breakfast. Dalal is director of Mayor Garcetti's Office of Motion Picture and Television Production.

 

Runaway production, with so many films and television shows being made out of state or out of the country, has cost us a lot of middle-class jobs, Dalal said. The tax credits will be awarded based on economic impact and how many jobs the project creates, he stated.  "We're looking at bringing back 8,000 to 9,000 middle-class jobs over the course of the next 5 years," he predicted. The money spent will go to local businesses, for products and services, as well as jobs, he said.

A local parent, program provider, or other person who can be the main point of contact and arrange for 5-10 volunteers to help on Walk to School Day to host tables and provide rewards (e.g. stickers) to children walking.

It's a great way to celebrate walking to school and highlight activities at your schools that can increase physical activity, improve health, and address personal and traffic safety concerns.
