Hollywood has long been known as the center of film and television production, but New York City has grown to be a fierce competitor for that title propelled by both our landmarks, unmistakable street scapes, a deep talent pool and tax incentives. But it wasn’t always that way and one of the City’s first pioneers was the site of the current Kaufman Astoria Studios with roots in production dating back to 1920.
Both the President/CEO, Hal Rosenbluth and Vice President, Tracy Capune of Kaufman Astoria Studios discuss the evolution of the studios in Astoria along with the surrounding community and their big plans for the future.
