 For
much of the history of cinema, Stockton has served as a popular
location for shooting movies. Producers and directors from Hollywood and other film making
capitals travel to Stockton to take advantage of its "film
friendly" environment. Great locations, a position in central California with easy rail and freeway access and low production costs make
Stockton an obvious choice for economically and creatively
minded producers.
From the University of the Pacific's beautiful ivy-covered
college campus to the picturesque waterways of the Delta, Stockton and San Joaquin County
offer many diverse locations for the film industry. Stockton's
combination of modern and Victorian architecture will give a unique appearance to your next scene.
Film producers find that Stockton can look like either a small western style
town or a mid-sized metropolitan city depending on which part of
the city you are filming. Vast fields of crops, undeveloped country,
rustic and modern drawbridges, performance roads, and panoramic
views provide ample locations for wilderness shoots. Directors
can easily and economically achieve an Old West pre-electricity
"feel" right here in California.
San
Joaquin County does not charge permit fees to film producers! Honest!
This helps make the county an excellent choice for low or high
budget films.
The Stockton
& San Joaquin Film Commission now offers an On-Line Photo Library for searching
for filming locations in San Joaquin County. These images are
just a very small sample of the variety of locations available
to the film industry in the county; there are far too many good
spots to show them all here!
For
