(FORT LEE, NJ) -- Over a century ago, before there was Hollywood, there was Fort Lee, New Jersey -- Birthplace of the Motion Picture Industry -- where independent filmmakers flocked to make movies for mass audiences eagerly consuming this experimental and imaginative technology. The Fort Lee Film Commission has launched a new podcast called Fort Lee Film Town USA to let the public know about what the commission is doing and the state of the film industry in the Garden State.
The debut podcast talks with Fort Lee Film Commission executive director, Tom Meyers and chairman of the board, Nelson Page. The pair explains the viable economic development and future impact with filmmaking and digital media in the State of New Jersey.
The podcast is available at www.fortleefilmtownusa.com.
