Abstract

In the past two decades an increasing number of local and national in- stitutions decided to invest public money to support the audiovisual field generating a wide range of economic and cultural benefits for their territories. In particular, in order to achieve these goals many local governments founded a Film Commission, that is a no-profit organization dedicated to bringing economic benefits to its jurisdiction through film, TV series, documentaries, commercials, etc. The Film Commission offers free services and supports to the troupes shooting on location. In return, the hosting region gets a wide range of advantages (direct, indirect and induced effects on the local economy, re- proceeding and promotion of the image of the region, promotion of local public heritage, of local creativity, and of new local expertise related but not limited to the audiovisual field, increasing in tourist flows, etc.). Our paper aims to investigate how Film Commissions work and their strategic role for the local development. A special focus is devoted to Italy, where the Film Commissions exist since 1997. Friuli Venezia Giulia Film Commission and Apulia Film Commission have been selected as case study.
