With the future of Atlanta looking at Passenger Rail going to Hampton ( Henry County) near this film studio, what could be more progressive and exciting for bringing POSITIVE growth and jobs to a community and county! Imagine taking the train to Henry County to be a part of the Film Industry and or living there in an Urban Walkable community where you could literally ride your bike to where the studios would be???

This is all great news to hear, as my bf and I are planning on moving from LA in the next 6 months for industry work. We're looking at places to live and it's been hard to scout for locations as I don't know where his work will be concentrated, I'll be looking at places around Henry County.

If there's any place in the South that' become a major player in the film industry its New Orleans. Just saw a big writeup on it recently.

being in the union has many restrictions, you are not allowed to work on certain projects in LA for a certain amount of time. LA is a good place to get started but once you reach a certain level after several years of steady work and get union membership you have to get experience elsewhere.
