Training & Education

As part of its training and professional development efforts, the South Carolina Film Commission presents a series of production seminars each year.  All workshops are provided to South Carolina residents at no charge and on a regular basis by action of the S.C. Motion Picture Incentive Act, passed by the state legislature in 2004.
