“A film commissioner’s top priority is to market the destination that they’re representing,” says Schuck of her role. “So my job is to attract as many projects as possible to our area so that our local crews can work, our local vendors can generate film dollars, and our city gets to benefit from film-induced tourism.”
Schuck says the tourism aspect is important. In addition to bringing people to the city to work on productions, her office helps get Dallas featured in projects, which pays dividends when people want to visit shooting locations from their favorite shows or movies.

Welcome to the agency Kathryn Forbes.  Born and raised in Dallas, Texas, she comes to us with some pretty impressive credits under her belt.  Her first stage play was  Hamlet, through The Classics Theater Project, playing Guildenstern, she immediately jumped into the short film Aquatic in the role of Monica.  Talk about striking while the iron is hot!  You may have recently seen her in the social media campaign for Gloria’s Latin Cuisine.  She has her eye out for a role in Severance and possibly a unicorn/dream role on HACKS – quick wit she has; who knows!?!  She comes recommended by our own Michelle Sherrill and we can’t wait to see what the future has in store for her
