The NSW Central Coast has long been a centre for creativity. Creativity is an integral element of our region’s brand strategy. We are home to some of Australia’s leading professional artists, writers and performers who are involved in many creative projects including dance, theatre, music, film-making, visual arts and performance poetry to name a few.
Specifically, we have around 1,000 film and television professionals living on the Central Coast but only 1.8% are able to work here. We also have a comparatively high youth unemployment rate that needs addressing by the creation of new local jobs. CCS has the potential to create many hundreds of jobs for our local people as well as support a large number of businesses in hospitality, accommodation, retail, tourism, trades and many other sectors.
The financial return for the Central Coast from CCS operating at just 50% capacity has been forecast at over $1 billion in just 2 years.
The availability of a wide diversity of landscapes on the Central Coast makes it the ideal location for filming with beautiful open spaces, hills, mountains, lakes, Brisbane Water and stunning beaches all within close proximately.
The Central Coast is also a location that offers opportunities for innovation in terms of technology and energy with the region forecast to include a gigabit city in the near future. The desirability of the Central Coast for large budget productions is likely to be significant, potentially bringing large budget feature films and TV series on the scale of The Fast & The Furious to our region.
With international productions flocking to Australia to take advantage of our success in managing the pandemic and our wealth of natural resources, now is the time for Australia to provide a new film and television production facility of global proportions – and the NSW Central Coast is the ideal location.
