Rochester / Finger Lakes Film & Video Office

About Us

Located in the beautiful Finger Lakes region of New York State, the Rochester Film Office offers complete location scouting assistance, information and extensive production resources and services. Rochester is home to one of the largest, most well developed and cost-competitive film & video production communities in the East (largest in NYS outside NYC); non-union crews; no fees or permits required; picturesque, landmark locations.
Truly a gem as a location- one of the most beautiful regions in the country- the Finger Lakes is most popular for its variety of Americana towns, New England style 19th Century villages, quaint harbors and lighthouses and beautiful country roads. Known for its spectacular waterfalls and gorges, the Finger Lakes is also the second largest wine producing region in the country; its steeply sloping vineyards and clear blue lakes make it ideal for doubling the picturesque wineries and lush grape-growing valleys of Europe.
