Meridian, Mississippi is located in the east-central part of the state, not far from the Alabama state line. It is perhaps best known in entertainment as the birthplace of country music legend Jimmie Rodgers, but other entertainers hailing from the area include singer-songwriter Paul Davis and actresses Sela Ward and Diane Ladd. The population of Meridian itself is around 38,000 people, but the Meridian DMA media market reaches up to a half million people in the surrounding areas. Scenic countryside, coastal areas and several major cities are all within driving distance of Meridian, making it a good center hub for location filming; additionally, several production companies make their home in this area. If you are considering becoming a film director, film producer, film editor, or cameraman, there is plenty of opportunity to learn filmmaking in Meridian without having to relocate to the craziness of Los Angeles or New York.
Movies, commercials, TV shows and documentaries are filmed on a regular basis throughout Mississippi, including in the Meridian area.
