“In the magnificent fierce morning of New Mexico one sprang awake, a new part of the soul woke up suddenly, and the old world gave way to the new.”
DH Lawrence, lines written at the Kiowa Ranch in San Cristobal.
The Pueblo of the Tiwa Indians has attracted visitation for a millennium. In modern times the Town and County of Taos welcome visitors: it is an integral part of the area’s function. It is time this welcome was extended to the film business.
TFO (Taos Film Office) has been formed to pursue, secure and service film production in Taos County with an emphasis on skills transfer to youth.
Our long-term vision is to attract film production to Northern New Mexico for economic benefit and to create sustainable opportunities for well-paid workforce development and ongoing youth engagement.
Youth today face overwhelming challenges: uncertain future, rapid change, diminished opportunity, technological threat, job insecurity. Through our network of contacts and in liaison with partners TFO will train and hire young locals in film production trades.
