NEVADA FILMMAKERS AND FILM PROFESSIONALS

Lakes, mountains, ghost towns, barren deserts, and the famous Las Vegas strip. These are just a few of the backdrops that have made the state of Nevada a favorite location site for local, regional and major film and television productions over the years. Among the noteworthy movies that have been filmed here: Con Air, The Godfather, Diamonds Are Forever, Magnolia, The Island, Casino, Top Gun, and Fear and Loathing In Las Vegas, just to name a few. Nevada in general (and Vegas in particular) is also a favorite shooting spot for television series, most notably "CSI" and of course, "Vegas."
