Frequently asked questions

ATX Lot is an independent guide to the physical production side of Texas film and TV — the studios and soundstages, the crews and vendors, and the state’s production incentive. It keeps a working directory of the major studio campuses across Texas. Part of the WholeTech Network.

Where a TV or film site covers what Texas puts on screen, ATX Lot covers where it gets made: the stages, the lots, the crews and the money. For the on-screen side, see our sister site TV ATX.

The Texas Moving Image Industry Incentive Program (TMIIIP) is a state grant on qualified in-state spending. The expanded program commits about $1.5 billion over ten years, with rebates up to roughly 31% that rise with budget size, Texas hires and in-state days, and can stack with local programs toward about 45%. See the incentive page — and verify current terms with the Texas Film Commission before budgeting.
