Why Nacogdoches
Texas's Oldest Town. Your Next Location.
300 years of history in one county. Nacogdoches offers what productions are actually looking for: diverse landscapes, production infrastructure, local hospitality, and access to Texas's expanding film incentives.
Locations that work on camera
Intact 19th-century downtown streetscapes. Piney woods and working farmland. Modern university campuses, historic homes, rural highways, small-town main streets, and Spanish colonial architecture, all within 30 miles.
Real production infrastructure
Access to sound stages, Volume Studios virtual production (2027 completion date), equipment, and a steady pipeline of professional and trained student crew.
Film Friendly since 2008
Nacogdoches has held Film Friendly Texas designation for over fifteen years. We've built out local infrastructure for film production.
Access to Texas incentives
Productions shooting in Nacogdoches qualify for several extra state incentives (5–10% bonus) through Texas's expanded film incentive program (up to 31% total), funded at $1.5 billion over the next decade under SB 22.
One or two hours from everywhere
Dallas–Fort Worth to the northwest, Houston to the south, Shreveport to the east. Easy in, easy out.
