Finding Innovation in New Places …and not just by “Putting a Bird On it”.
Oregon Governor’s Office of Film & Television • Functions as a traditional state film commission. • Markets the state as a filming destination • Helps with facilitating location filming when a project lands in Oregon • Administers Oregon’s film incentive program (we write checks) • Since 2008, production has tripled in Oregon
But the two most innovative projects to happen in Oregon’s film and video industry were….
Portland Incubator Experiment • Founded in 2009 • 400 jobs in Oregon’s tech sector created • Over $100million in VC investment • “Great teams have better chance of success over great ideas.”
Oregon Story Board’s Projects • Intel’s Future of Narrative Hack • TrackTown USA’s “Hack at Hayward”
“Grimmfest” • Pitch competition for Oregon digital media companies. • Challenge – Propose a digital media solution for Season 3 of “Grimm” • 12 Digital Media Companies Participated (VFX, Video Game, Animation, Digital Strategy)
