The Oklahoma Film + Music Office (OF+MO), in partnership with the City of Spencer, proudly announces that Spencer has achieved film friendly certification after fulfilling the requirements of OF+MO’s Oklahoma Film Friendly Community Program.
“Our Film Friendly Certification marks an exciting step forward as we welcome the film industry to our incredible and unique city,” said Spencer City Manager Shamia Jackson. “This new chapter is not only an honor, but also a privilege, as we anticipate the economic growth it will bring and the opportunity to collaborate with the artistic and cinematic community. This certification reflects our commitment to progress, embodied in our motto, ‘Spencer Forward!’ As the neighborly city, we invite you to bring your next work of art to life here with us.”
Located in Oklahoma County just minutes from Oklahoma City, Spencer is a historic, beautiful and diverse city near the North Canadian River. Spencer gives businesses, residents and tourists the unique experience of country-style living while offering easy access to main thoroughfares and the bustling excitement of the major metro area. Home to Oklahoma’s modern film production campus, Filmmakers Ranch, a state-certified soundstage provider, the City of Spencer has a robust film portfolio having worked with productions such as “Twisters,” “Fairwood,” “Cricket,” “The Huntsman,” “Keep Quiet” and “Rated.”
“The City of Spencer’s certification as a film friendly community strengthens its position in Oklahoma’s thriving film industry,” said OF+MO Director Jeanette Stanton. “This designation not only highlights Spencer’s assets, but also underscores the importance of collaboration in building a sustainable film ecosystem across the state.”
