Fiji Airways, Film Fiji and Tourism Fiji signed a Memorandum of Understanding yesterday for the promotion of Fiji as a film destination to overseas based production houses for filming of Hollywood, Bollywood and other international productions.
The MOU signed by Fiji Airways Managing Director and CEO and Tourism Fiji Chairman Stefan Pichler and Film Fiji CEO Dallas Foon will see a coordinated approach by these organisations in bringing to Fiji new opportunities for film production.
Pichler said ultimately tourism will be a big winner if a major production is shot in Fiji.
In 2014, Film Fiji issued 52 approvals to productions ranging from small budgets to those over $10 million.
Most of these productions flew Fiji Airways to come to Fiji.
