Film and TV: New York on Location Event

 

On Sunday, September 15, 12–4pm, join us for NEW YORK ON LOCATION, a free family-friendly outdoor event that offers a behind-the-scenes look at film production in New York City. The public will have the rare opportunity to go inside working movie trailers and trucks—straight from productions shooting in New York—and speak directly with movie professionals about their work. Trucks will include star dressing rooms, electrical, grip, prop, camera, hair and makeup, wardrobe, special effects, and more. Key film craftspeople will demonstrate and explain firsthand their roles in the moviemaking process and how they got there.  


New York on Location is co-presented by MoMI, Theatrical Teamsters Local 817, Motion Picture Studio Mechanics Local 52, IATSE, and Kaufman Astoria Studios.  


We'll kick things off with welcoming remarks at noon by the Studio gate. Special guest: @madeinny Commissioner Pat Kaufman!


Location: Kaufman Astoria Studios backlot (36 Street, between 34 and 35 Ave), Museum of the Moving Image (36-01 35 Avenue), and surrounding streets (south side of 34 Ave between 35 and 36 Street, along 35 Street between 34 and 35 Ave, and north side of 35 Avenue between 35 and 37 Streets) in Astoria, NY, 11106.  

 

Admission is free to New York on Location, with a discount offered on Museum admission that day. More information at https://movingimage.org/new-york-on-location-2024. 


Food will be available for purchase from local food trucks and Mon Amour at the MoMI Café and Courtyard.
