IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR GLOBAL FILMMAKERS
The U.S. media and entertainment [M&E] industry is the world’s largest, expected to be valued at $723 billion by 2018 – up from $598 billion in 2014. As a marketplace, the United States is larger than Asia, Europe, Latin America, or the Middle East-North Africa for media and entertainment1. The U.S. M&E industry is concentrated on the two coasts: in the greater Los Angeles community, and in New York City, with regional hubs for each sub-sector.
