TEXAS FILM & FILMMAKING LINKS



As you begin preproduction, we're ready to help with information on locations, crews, talent, state and local contacts, weather, laws, sales tax exemptions, housing and anything else you might need to know about filming in Texas. Our services are free, and, since this office has been assisting filmmakers since 1971, we have plenty of experience.


Houston, The Space City, is ready to host your next film/video project. Whether it's a still shoot, music video, commercial, or feature film, we have the resources and professional local crew to get the job done successfully. We'll start by scouting suitable locations for your project and putting the photos online for your review and also mail you hard copies if needed. We will assist you in finding accommodations, equipment, crew and act as a liaison with other City of Houston departments.

Del Castillo
DEL CASTILLO burst onto the Austin music scene in late 2001. Since then, the band has been honored time and again amassing numerous significant career milestones in a remarkable short period of time. "Absolutely some of the best Spanish guitar that I have ever heard!" quoted AustinExperience.com, which sums up the explosive reactions. They often play with director Robert Rodriguez as Chingon, and can be heard on the soundtracks for Once Upon a Time in Mexico and Kill Bill 2.
