HOW A PRODUCTION PARTICIPATES
When local production offices are established, the production company must submit the FCAP Application Part One to the New Mexico Film Office (NMFO). Production companies must submit a contract provided by the NMFO prior to principal photography and submit completed applications by participants prior to NM wrap. (Applications will be requested by the first week of principal photography). The invoice for reimbursement is submitted with payroll reports when training hours are completed. Interested production companies are asked to request a meeting with the NMFO Workforce Administrator to review all program processes and requirements as soon as the local production office opens.

For all program details and for individual available hours, please contact the Workforce Administrator at the New Mexico State Film Office: phone 505-476-5612 or email, Tobi Ives.
