Greetings from Mayor Daley

Dear Members of the Film Community:

Chicago has everything it takes to make your production a success - a labor climate that is friendly and cooperative, a talent pool with depth and diversity, a plentiful supply of rentals, some of the nation's finest hotels and the best urban locations on the continent.

Most of all, we have the Chicago Film Office. It works in concert with all city departments and sister agencies to provide the help you need to stay on schedule and within budget.

We want your business and will go out of our way to get it. Producers in every medium - from still photography to commercials, from student films to major motion pictures - have made Chicago their home.

The opportunities for filmmaking in Chicago are endless, and the more you examine the possibilities, the more likely you are to choose to work here.

Our goal is to further Chicago's reputation as a resourceful, cooperative city in which to film. We hope you take us up on our offer.

You will be glad you did.

Sincerely,

Richard M. Daley

Mayor
