Presque Isle, Maine is a small town of about 9000 people, located in the northern part of the state. Perhaps its most significant historical contribution as a city is in the area of hot-air ballooning, being the launch site for the first successful transatlantic balloon crossing in 1978. Nowadays, each year in late August, Presque Isle hosts the Crown of Maine Balloon Festival to commemorate the event.
The Presque Isle area is loaded with beautiful natural scenery, making it a great area for location filming. Other film location hotspots like Bangor and Portland are within driving distance. Additionally, the State of Maine offers generous tax incentive packages for filmmakers who shoot here. Thus, for the seeming remoteness of this state, there is a remarkable amount of filming that goes on. If you are looking at a career as a film director, film producer, film editor or cameraperson, you'll find more opportunities here in Presque Isle than you think.
Some examples of the movies that have been shot in Maine include Forrest Gump, Shutter Island, Darkness Falls, Jumanji, Pet Semetary, Message in a Bottle, The Good Son and In the Bedroom, just to name a few.
