Wyoming film production incentives program.
HB 93 creates Wyoming's film production incentives program, administered by the Wyoming Tourism Board, to support economic development by attracting film and digital entertainment productions to the state. The program offers monetary rebates of up to 30% on qualified local expenditures for productions filmed in Wyoming, including costs for sets, food, lodging, equipment, and below-the-line salaries for Wyoming residents. To qualify, productions must meet specific criteria like maintaining accurate records, including branded Wyoming recognition, and hiring Wyoming residents. The bill defines "qualified productions" as those meeting tiered criteria (e.g., feature films, documentaries) and limits rebates to available funding. This directly affects film producers filming in Wyoming who meet the program's spending and residency requirements.
