Located on Michigan's upper peninsula along the banks of beautiful Lake Superior, Marquette is the largest city in upper Michigan, with a population of about 21,000 people. It functions primarily as a port city, shipping out tons of iron ore. Although this is a largely rural area, the main attraction of Marquette is its breathtaking natural surroundings, making it ideal for location filming. Add to that the presence of several film or television production companies in the area, plus a generous tax incentive package that Michigan offers to attract filmmakers to the area, and you have a great alternative place to develop a career as a film director, film producer or film editor--without having to relocate to the hustle and bustle of New York or Los Angeles.
Author Robert Traver set several of his novels in Marquette, including Anatomy of a Murder. Consequently, much of the film adaptation of Anatomy of a Murder was shot in Marquette. Other movies that have seen location filming in Marquette and surrounding regions of Michigan include Die Hard 2, Somewhere in Time, and the 2008 Documentary In Search of the Real America (Revisited).
