For over 50 years Sonoma County has played gracious host to the film industry. From "Frenchman's Creek" in the early 40's to the Twentieth Century Fox production of "Cheaper By the Dozen" in 2003, Sonoma County has been home to as wide a variety of movies as varied locations offer. Our diversity is evident from the breathtaking Sonoma coastline, which boasts everything from sandy beaches to jagged cliffs, the beautiful vineyards that cover our hills and valleys, the ethereal redwood forest, placid lakes, meandering country roads, historic bridges, and picturesque rural villages.

You will find the Sonoma County Film Office to be helpful, knowledgeable, and responsive in making your stay in Sonoma County most productive. With our southern border only 45 minutes from the Golden Gate Bridge, Sonoma County is easily accessible.

The office offers a variety of services. It can help cut through red tape and act as a liaison between your production and the various municipal governmental agencies in Sonoma County, as well as provide connections with its varied distinctive neighborhoods, and "small town" business districts. We can advise you of locations and put you in touch with the many talented industry professionals who call Sonoma County their home.

Sonoma County is the wine country and much more. Our film office is here to make sure you have access to what you need. We invite you to come "drink in" our locations.
