Cherokee Nation Film Incentive will provide up to $1 million in annual funding for productions filmed within the Cherokee Nation’s northeast Oklahoma reservation. This program will be the first tribal film office in the country.
The purpose of this project is to introduce Hollywood to the beauty and diversity of its 14-county reservation. In 2019 the Cherokee Nation Film Office became the first certified American Indian film commission to open in the U.S.
This program is known for encouraging and providing jobs to unique all-inclusive talent, crew, staff, and actors that are American Indian.
