Eastern Film Region

With small and large mining towns dotting its northerly mountains and valleys, and well-populated urban centers, including Philadelphia, covering southern flatlands and central hills, this region provides a variety of historical, industrial, residential and pastoral settings.

Valley Forge… the Liberty Bell... the fashionable “main line"… and the famous Art Museum, site of Rocky.

Two hundred years ago, Philadelphia was America's pre-eminent city. Today, the fourth-largest city in the country and the second largest on the East Coast, remains pre-eminent in film production, with a large available crew base and an extravagant variety of locations. It has provided settings for films such as Witness; Philadelphia; Twelve Monkeys; Up Close and Personal; Fallen; Beloved; The Sixth Sense and Signs.
