USA Today has become the latest publication to point out the many Washington, D.C.-set television and film productions that shoot in other states because of better incentives and easier permitting. Examples include Showtime's "Homeland" (North Carolina), USA's "Political Animals" (Pennsylvania) and HBO's "Veep" (Maryland). All three of those states offer 25% tax rebates.

Movie Marketing 'Campaign' in NYC
Will Ferrell and Zach Galifianakas starrer "The Campaign" opened this weekend nationwide. The Jay Roach-directed political comedy is performing well at the box office, with an expected haul of up to $30 million by the end of the weekend.
I recently moved from my hometown of Washington, D.C. to New York City and decided to snap some photos of the D.C.-themed film about two rival North Carolina congressional candidates. Warner Bros. plastered New York City with billboards and posters promoting the film. Seeing the ads across Gotham with the Capitol dome in the background has been fun for this native Washingtonian.
