Arkansas Film Office

About Us

The Arkansas Film Office is a division of the Arkansas Department of Economic Development. Created in 1979, the office promotes Arkansas to film, video, television, and commercial production companies and provides liaison services for filmmakers working within the state. Filmmakers with specific location needs are provided with a series of materials designed to show what Arkansas has to offer. Photographs of possible locations, contact names and crew information supply valuable information to filmmakers.

The office handles liaison services with other federal, state, and local government entities such as the National Parks Service, Arkansas Highway & Transportation Department and county and city officials.
In addition, film office staff members accompany filmmakers on scouting trips within the state and introduce them to community leaders, officials, landowners, and others who can assist the production company.
