Camera and Film Industry Rentals

Camera and Video Equipment RentalsApollo 13, The Last Picture Show, Hope Floats RoboCop, Bonnie and Clyde, Traffic, Texas Chain Saw Massacre – what do these movies have in common? Give up? They were all filmed in the great state of Texas. For years, Texas has been considered a film-friendly state for a number of reasons. Not only does the Lone Star State offer beautiful natural scenery with its plains, mountains, coasts, hills, and prairies, but its small towns and unique culture are ideal for a movie setting.

Last year, Governor Rick Perry signed House Bill 873, which promotes the film, television, video, and digitial interactive media production industries in Texas. In the last ten years, $1.2 billion dollars was brought into the state’s economy from the moving picture business and Governor Perry along with the Texas Film Commission are offering incentives, hoping for even more revenue from the industry. These include, up-front sales tax exemptions, refunds of 6% of the state occupancy tax on hotel rooms, and refunds on fuel tax used for off-road fuel. Texas also has the capability of providing 80% of all necessary crew jobs on major film productions! That’s something many states aren’t able to do. With all this in mind, filming anything from a wedding to a major motion picture in Texas is very appealing.

If you are planning to film in Texas and you’re lacking equipment, why not consider Video Gear and Camera Equipment Rentals?
