This bill mandates the establishment of a New Jersey Film Trail by the Division of Travel and Tourism within the Department of State. The Film Trail aims to highlight locations across the state where popular movies, television shows, and other entertainment productions were filmed, explicitly excluding private residences from being identified as filming sites. The Division, in collaboration with the Motion Picture and Television Development Commission, will select these filming locations and create official markers that detail the production history of each site, including the title of the production, the performers involved, and the filming dates. The bill also stipulates that no public funds will be used for markers on private property, and the Division may accept private funding for related expenses.

Additionally, the bill requires the Division to develop and maintain a user-friendly website that provides comprehensive information about the Film Trail. This website will feature an interactive map, driving directions, tour information, photographs, and descriptions of each filming location. The Division is also tasked with creating vacation itineraries that highlight nearby attractions, dining, and lodging options for visitors. The website will be regularly updated to reflect new filming locations and will include a mechanism for public and private entities to submit recommendations for inclusion on the Film Trail.
