Bangor, Maine is a port city located in the south-central part of the state, about 30 miles upriver from Penobscot Bay. The population of Bangor is approximately 31,000 people, but the surrounding area hosts a population of around 148,000. The gorgeous natural scenery in this area makes it a great place for location filming. In fact, Bangor is the hometown of author Steven King, and several of the film adaptations of his novels have been shot on location here. Maine also benefits from the support of a local film office and state tax incentives that attract filmmakers to the state. If you are looking at a career in film directing, film production or film editing, Bangor is a pleasant alternative to relocation to New York or Los Angeles--and FILM CONNECTION can help plug you in.
Bangor and the surrounding regions of Maine have hosted the shooting of major motion pictures, including Steven King film adaptations such as Firestarter, Pet Semetary, Graveyard Shift and Thinner. Other films shot in the area include Forrest Gump, Shutter Island, The Man Without a Face, and the classic film Peyton Place, just to name a few.
