It should come as no surprise that Austin was named one of the "Best Places to Live and Work as a Moviemaker" in MovieMaker Magazine. The magazine lauded our photogenic city for its festival scene (think: Austin Film Festival), the Texas Moving Image Industry Incentive Program, and iconic film locations. What can we say? The camera loves how we keep it weird.

No wonder so many films and television shows have been shot here, including:

"Friday Night Lights" | You don't need us to tell you this iconic show about football was filmed here, but it would feel wrong not to include it.
"Dazed and Confused" | You may recognize the former Americana Theatre, which has now been turned into the Yarborough Branch of the Austin Public Library.
"True Grit" | This Coen Brothers classic was filmed around Texas and includes a quick shot of the Capitol Building standing in as a rail station.
"Queer Eye" | Season six was filmed here, but don't worry if you missed all the Austin references.
