With the first two “High School Musical” productions proving to be big hits, a state board is putting out a $2 million incentive to make sure a third installment also is shot in Utah. Meeting in Price, the Governor’s Office of Economic Development Board approved several economic development incentives Friday, including the package for High School Musical 3 Productions Inc. If the film company selects Utah, it would receive the state’s biggest production incentive ever. An offer of $263,000 was approved for “High School Musical” and another for $500,000 was earmarked for the sequel. According to board documents, the film’s budget is $13.3 million, and 99 percent of that would be spent in Utah. The production would involve 190 crew positions at $1,875 per week; plus $58,498 for stunt performers; $15,000 for Utah casting directors; and $472,640 for about 4,000 Utah extras. The production would take place over 41 days, starting April 21. Click Read More to read more of the story! :minic_wink:
The tween heartthrobs of “High School Musical” will dance and sing their way back to Utah to film the third installment of the blockbuster Disney franchise, it was confirmed Friday. Shooting begins April 21 and is expected to wrap June 13, according to documents filed with the Governor’s Office of Economic Development board (GOED). While the first two films premiered on the Disney Channel television network, the new movie, scheduled for release sometime in the second half of 2008, will debut in movie theaters. “[The third] ‘High School Musical’ will be officially shooting in Utah,” Lisa Roskelly, spokeswoman for Gov. John Huntsman Jr., said Friday. To help lure the production back to where it all began – at Salt Lake City’s East High School – the GOED board Friday approved a maximum $2 million incentive for the production, the largest ever given to entice a filmmaker to Utah. Disney officials and Don Schain, the Salt Lake City-based producer of the first two films, declined to comment Friday. But East High School Principal Paul Sagers said he and Salt Lake City School District officials have been meeting with Disney executives about renting the East High building for filming. Shooting is scheduled for 41 days, longer than the first two movies. “At least verbally we all committed to doing that,” he said. “They’ve basically asked to use the classrooms, the halls, the gyms . . . and the commons area [the lunch room].” Click Read More to read more of the story! :minic_wink:
