“There is a perception, or a misconception about the commission, I think some people think that we are a funding entity for movies. Hey, I wish that was the case because there would probably be a lot more things shooting here if we had unlimited pool of money to offer people. But besides education, we are an economic driver advocating for the tax credit for film companies to film in the state of Ohio.”
