+6.2% labor rebate (OPIF)
Illustrative reference. Verify before deal.
Oregon's OPIF (Oregon Production Investment Fund) provides a base cash rebate of 20% on qualified goods and services, plus a separate 6.2% labor rebate that brings the combined effective rate to 26.2%. A parallel indie-focused program (iOPIF) is available for smaller-budget productions, broadening access beyond the main fund. The $20 million annual cap and $1 million minimum spend position the program for mid-budget features and series. Portland anchors the state's production ecosystem with an experienced crew base, established post-production facilities, and a distinctive urban character that has supported productions from Portlandia to Shrill to numerous independent features. Oregon's landscapes (Pacific coastline, Cascade Range forests, high desert, and Columbia River Gorge) provide exceptional location diversity within a relatively compact geography.
The questions producers ask first when sizing a Oregon shoot, answered against the state's current program structure and fringe environment.
Headline rate is the start, not the end. Compare Oregon side-by-side with every other U.S. jurisdiction on caps, minimum spend, refundability, and fringe before locking the location.
