The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 6770, aims to establish the Connecticut Film, Video and Media Office within the Department of Economic and Community Development. This new office will focus on promoting Connecticut as a prime location for the production of films, videos, streaming content, and other media-related products.
The bill introduces new legal language to create this office, with the specific insertion of the Connecticut Film, Video and Media Office into the general statutes. There are no deletions from current law mentioned in the text of the bill. The overall purpose of the legislation is to enhance the state's media production capabilities and attract more industry activity to Connecticut.
