FRIENDS OF THE FILM OFFICE (FOFO)

Want free passes to movie screenings, sneak previews of who is filming where and when, while also directly contributing to the active film industry in the Pittsburgh area? Did you know that since 1990, the film industry has generated nearly $2 billion in southwestern Pennsylvania? The Film Office plays a major role in this by working to bring film production to the region and assisting productions while they are here. By joining Friends of the Film Office (FOFO), you can help raise awareness of the need for an active film industry in the Pittsburgh area. Contributions sustain the efforts to sell this region as a great place to produce movies and television.
