Interesting that MN stole this from NJ due to strong MN film incentives, now NJ has strong incentives and MN's are very weak. This production would NOT look at filming in MN today.

For one 30 second commercial, over 80 people were working on set. All union crew were paid wages + benefits.

New Mexico is a great option for MN college grads looking for film/tv work. Productions are using the entire state, not just the cities. No Tax Credit for MN in 2019. @GovTimWalz @RepLislegard

To create the Jolly Roger Motel in A Serious Man, the Coen brothers used the Aqua City Motel in Minneapolis for exteriors. The interiors were built on a 'stage' in the gymnasium of Shingle Creek Elementary which was also the 'Hebrew School'
@GovTimWalz @johnlesch @RepLislegard
AND... You can see the Aqua City Motel in an episode of @DocumentaryNow from @IFC
Its almost like the motel was made for the screen

Key Grips are responsible for rigging overhead equipment, shaping light and shadows, and sometimes just holding the camera between takes. It takes years of experience to safely master the craft.
