The bill amends the Michigan Military Act by updating Section 337 to allow the adjutant general to authorize the use of property owned or controlled by the Department of Military and Veterans Affairs for film production without charge. The bill specifies that the economic and other benefits derived from film production in Michigan are considered the value received in exchange for the property use. Additionally, the adjutant general is prohibited from authorizing property use for films that contain obscene content or require record-keeping for performers under federal law.

The bill also revises the definitions related to film and obscene content. It removes the requirement for the Department of Military and Veterans Affairs to cooperate with the Michigan film office in providing information about potential film locations, and it updates the definition of "film" to encompass a broader range of media formats. The term "obscene matter or an obscene performance" is retained as defined in existing law. The enactment of this bill is contingent upon the passage of Senate Bill No. 631.
