Thanks to everyone who attended the GCFC Spring Media Mixer was at Boss Dog Brewing Company!
About 150 local professionals came to network, find out what projects are currently filming in Cleveland, and heard about the latest updates for House Bill 525, which would increase the Ohio Film Tax Credit from $40 million to $100 million, allowing for the creation of many more new jobs in Northeast Ohio.

We were honored to host Cleveland natives and director/producers Jamie Babbit & David Wain as our special guests for Behind the Camera last Friday! The night was full of laughter, stories of growing up in Ohio, and an overall theme of following your passion, no matter what obstacles you may face. Thank you to Jamie and David for sharing the evening with us, to our event sponsors, Key Private Bank, Cuyahoga Community College, and Playhouse Square for making this night possible, and for all of our guests who came out in support of #FilmInCLE by attending our event!

This past Monday, we held our Cleveland Finals Watch Party event for “American Ninja Warrior” and it couldn’t have gone better.
We had an amazing turnout at The Corner Alley Downtown, the ninjas in attendance were so gracious with their time, Q104’s Jeremiah and Jeff were amazing emcees for the evening, WKYC Channel 3 was broadcasting live spots from the event AND we raised money for our organization!
Well over 200 people attended our Summer Media Mixer last month, one of our best turnouts ever.
Special thanks to Ricky Volante for speaking about our local Entertainment Law scene, and Music Box Supper Club for hosting us again at their beautiful venue.
These events are part of our workforce development efforts, always working to make sure our local professionals can network and share ideas about growing this industry in Northeast Ohio.
Our Production Assistant (PA) Workshop did not go as planned.
Our special guest Mikki Ziska had her flight canceled not once, but twice, and we feared that we would have to ultimately cancel the event.
However, GCFC President Ivan Schwarz stepped in at the last minute to deliver the workshop for 80 people who wanted to learn more about taking their first steps into the media production industry!
When all was said and done, it was a good day for everyone involved and an even better one for our local industry.
