ATLANTA, GA — Georgia Film Week returns March 18–20 to unify policymakers, industry professionals, educators, and students for a dynamic, statewide celebration of Georgia’s film and television industry.  On Wednesday, March 18, Film Day will kick off at the State Capitol beginning at 9 a.m., where industry leaders and public officials will gather under the Gold Dome to recognize the economic and cultural impact of film and television across the state. '

Hosted by Georgia Production Partnership (GPP), the three-day event highlights advocacy, workforce development, and the collaborative community that has helped position Georgia as a global production powerhouse.

“In moments of industry change and uncertainty, community is what keeps us strong,” said Aneesah Bray, co-president of GPP. “Georgia’s film industry was built because leaders, creatives, businesses, and lawmakers came together with a shared vision. Georgia Film Week is an opportunity to celebrate that collaboration and ensure we remain competitive and unified moving forward.”

On Wednesday, March 18, GPP will honor Craig Miller for his longstanding leadership and advocacy within Georgia’s film community.

“Honoring Craig Miller on Film Day at the Capitol is especially meaningful because Craig embodies the kind of steady leadership that helped shape this industry into what it is today,” said Darius Evans, co-president of GPP. “His advocacy, integrity, and commitment to collaboration laid the groundwork for thousands of careers and helped position Georgia as a leader in global production.”

On Thursday, March 19, Community Day at SCAD Film Studios Atlanta will connect industry professionals with emerging creatives through three panel discussions and student film spotlight segments between each panel. The day will conclude with an evening networking mixer designed to foster meaningful connections between students and working professionals.

Georgia Film Week will close on Friday, March 20, with the Trailblazers Luncheon at Manuel’s Tavern, the historic gathering place where Georgia’s modern film movement first gained momentum. The luncheon honors the pioneers and early advocates who helped lay the foundation for what has grown into a multibillion-dollar industry supporting thousands of jobs statewide.

Throughout the week, Georgia Film Week will celebrate, not only the infrastructure and incentives that power the industry, but also the crew members, executives, educators, creatives, small businesses, and public servants who make Georgia’s production community one of the strongest in the world.
