Join the Texas Motion Picture Alliance the last Sunday of every month at the Highball where we feature industry guests spanning film, tv, commercials and video games, offering behind-the-scenes peeks at their projects along with perspectives on the Texas production incentives program. (Past guests include Texas Film Commission Director Bob Hudgins, Oscar-nominated sound mixer John Pritchett, DC UNIVERSE ONLINE Producer Oge Young, Green Set Austin’s Marjorie Eber, and a special event with the producers and stars of FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS.) Then, stick around after our meeting/speaker for an networking mixer, and you’re of course encouraged to avail yourselves of The Highball’s excellent bar, dinner menu, bowling, skeeball and karaoke.

ABOUT TXMPA:
The Texas Motion Picture Alliance is the statewide all-volunteer non-profit industry advocacy organization for film, TV, commercial and video game makers. We have led the charge for increased and improved production incentives legislation to grow the creative industries in Texas and keep us competitive with other states. As of June 1st, the new Texas Moving Image Industry Incentive Program has allocated over $50 million in grants resulting in $519 million in Texas production spending and over 53,000 cast and crew jobs for Texans since it was enacted April 23, 2009 – one of the most effective and successful job creation programs in the state. But we have a lot more work to do heading into the next Legislative Session.
