California has awarded $255.7 million in state tax credits across 22 television productions, the California Film Commission announced on Wednesday.
“The Studio,” “The Comeback,” “Golf,” “Ballard,” “S.W.A.T. Exiles,” “NCIS: Origins” and “Presumed Innocent” are all among the recipients, marking the first round of credits since the state upped its incentive to $750 million in June.
The commission also noted that due to the film and TV tax incentive program’s increase from its previous $330 million limit, there was a nearly 400% surge in applications for the television tax break, as opposed to last year. The new rules meant half-hour shows were welcome to apply for the first time as well.
Additionally, the CFC expects these allocations will result in an estimated $1.1 billion in economic activity for California and employment for 6,500 cast and crew members throughout the state.
