Our mission is to expand the creative economy by connecting creators to local workforce. 

Since 1995 the region has boasted a film office dedicated to connecting Producers to Northern MN.  In 2020 the Upper Midwest Film Office was formed to develop incentives,  infrastructure, and crew to become the independent production hub of the United States.  In 2022, the first full year of production,  our expected economic impact in St Louis County is over $3.5M.

What does UMFO do?

  • Connects and trains crew
  • Advocates for and administers incentives
  • Promotes the region to industry decision-makers
  • Serves as a "personal Concierge" for production teams
  • Connects businesses with productions
  • Provides a platform for local creators and crew to connect.
