The Memphis & Shelby County Film and Television Commission, like other publicly-funded film commissions in the U.S.A., works only with funded productions and does not assist producers in securing funding for projects.

We welcome you and your film/tv production to Memphis & Shelby County. Here you will find an abundance of locations and diverse, qualified crew and cast. Please consult our on-line directory at www.filmmemphis.org Wondering if you will need a permit? You will if filming on public property, i.e., property owned by City, County, or State governments. Wanting to launch a filming drone from public property? You will need to submit additional drone photography-related documents. The use of uniformed assistance to close a street or for intermittent traffic control also requires a permit and Certificates of Insurance. For ALL permit needs, call 901.527.8300 ext. 102 or email Project Specialist/Deputy Film Commissioner Sharon Fox O’Guin at Sharon@filmmemphis.org All filming/location permits and requests to use uniformed assistance begin in the Film/TV Commission Office. The Film/TV Commission also offers location research and, when available, discounts on hotels in the area. Please call us with your questions and needs. Like all members of the Association of Film Commissioners International, we encourage respectful speech and behavior toward our local cast, crew, and background actors. Adherence is recommended to all local, state, and federal laws regarding discrimination, harassment, abuse, and workplace safety. Any crew member who feels they have been treated in an illegal or discriminatory manner, should report to the appropriate state or federal agency. We would greatly appreciate your completing a Location Expenditure Form when your production wraps. Please answer a few short questions at https://goo.gl/forms/89GXHzsrfj38pfT93 Again, welcome!
