The Office of Motion Picture and Television Development has unveiled a new virtual "one-stop shop" for filmmakers wishing to shoot in the District of Columbia. A new streamlined permitting process makes it easier, faster, and more efficient to film in Washington, DC.

Film permits are now generated directly from the Film Office and can be delivered electronically to filmmakers. Additional improvements to the film permit processes will be rolled out by the end of 2009. For more information and to get started, please visit our online permit center, here.
