I Went Back to Ohio, But My City Was Gone (So I Made a Film)

(Apologies to Chrissie Hynde.) There's new information available at the Ohio Department of Development's Ohio Film Commission site at http://www.ohiofilm.com. Wow, dig those green stripes.

Anyway, there's now a database of resources for filming in Ohio. You may search by keyword or by subcategory of three main categories: freelancers, production services, or support services (helicopter rental?) Search results include name, company, address, phone number, e-mail, Web page, and production credits. Not all information is available for all listings.

There's also a database of over 2,000 pictures taken from all over Ohio, searchable by keyword. Searching for Cuyahoga+River (specify phrases with a + between words, and not with quotes. Quotes don't work) had 28 results. Cooper+Stadium had 13 results. This same section has a list of famous Ohioans and their vital stats, including the ever-fabulous Tim Conway, Phyllis Diller, and Devo. In addition, there's a list of films made in Ohio broken out by year.
