Washington lawmakers opted not to extend the state’s film incentives program in the most recent legislative session.
It seems, however, that this decision, though disappointing to some, will have little impact on local filmmakers.
“Unless you’re a bigger filmmaker, you can’t take advantage of those things,” said Alexander “Sandy” MacKenzie, founder, president and chief executive officer of Highland Light Productions and writer and director of “Dancing on the Edge.” “If you’re a local filmmaker, it doesn’t do you much good.”
