The Tri-Cities metro area of Tennessee is anchored by the cities of Kingsport and Johnson City in northeast Tennessee, and Bristol, which straddles the Tennessee-Virginia state line. The total population of this metro area is right around a half million people. The borders of Kentucky and North Carolina are also in close by. The Tri-Cities are situated just west of the Blue Ridge Mountains, providing a variety of natural scenery close by, including mountains, rolling hills, and forested areas. Combined with the urban scenery of the metro itself and several major cities within driving distance, the Tri-Cities provide a great diversity for filming locations.
Movies, commercials, TV shows and documentaries are filmed all over Tennessee on a regular basis, including in the Tri-Cities area. Some of the films shot here and in the surrounding regions include The Work and the Glory, Road Trip, October Sky and That Evening Sun, to name a few. The Tri-Cities also benefit from Tennessee's generous tax incentives which draw filmmakers to the area. Whether your interest is in producing, directing, editing, camera work, lighting or special effects, you'll find a surprising amount of opportunity here in the Tri-Cities area.
