About the Santa Fe Film Office

On July 01, 2016 the Santa Fe Film Office was jointly established by the County and City of Santa Fe to service, recruit and expand film and television production throughout the Santa Fe County/City region; support and develop community businesses providing goods and services to the industry; engage in community outreach and education regarding production activity; and work with partners in the public and private sectors to expand educational and employment opportunities in the production industry for local residents.

In its first year of operation the SFFO oversaw a two-fold increase in regional production from approximately $70 million in direct production spending in FY2016, to over $145 million in FY2017 [1]. This equated to approximately $450 million in total generated economic activity, with additional tens of millions generated in Film-Induced-Tourism (FIT) throughout the Santa Fe region. It was one of the most rapidly expanding economic sectors in the region over that period, employing hundreds of local workers, supporting dozens of local businesses, and generating millions of dollars to the general operating funds of the County and City.
