The Utah Film Commission announced seven new productions approved for state film incentives, expected to generate $12.6 million in economic impact and create more than 600 jobs across 11 counties.

Projects include the independent feature Salt and Honey, along with films such as One Beautiful Life and Noah’s Big Adventure. A Warner Bros. project and the return of episodic productions are also part of the slate.

Virginia Pearce, director of the Utah Film Commission, emphasized that incentives remain essential for attracting productions and sustaining the state’s workforce.

For local filmmakers and organizations in Utah, this is important. More productions mean more crew opportunities, training pipelines, and industry visibility. It also reinforces Utah’s long-standing reputation as “America’s Film Set,” thanks to its varied landscapes and experienced production crews.

For a local organization like Gloriafilm Society, a growing production ecosystem means more filmmakers, more audiences, and more potential collaborators entering the regional film community.
