Our Mission Statement:

The mission of the Steeltown Entertainment Project ("Steeltown") is to nurture promising talent and to incubate meaningful and commercially viable entertainment projects in Southwestern Pennsylvania by connecting former Pittsburghers who are working in the entertainment industry with the region's human, cultural, educational and economic resources.

The Steeltown Film Factory:

As Pittsburgh celebrates its 250th anniversary in 2008, Steeltown is planning to launch a new initiative, the Steeltown Film Factory, which will reconnect some of Southwestern Pennsylvania's most illustrious entertainment expatriates with this region's entertainment resources. Through a series of filmmaking workshops and competitions, the Film Factory will bring together these local and expatriate resources to mentor emerging filmmaking talent and produce up to three short films about Pittsburgh.

Letter from the Director:

Once Upon A Time In Pittsburgh: Creating A Sustainable Entertainment Industry In Our Hometown.

  • Co-productions with Hollywood: Locally filmed 'Haunting Hour' delivers frightful Stine-style fun
  • Encouraging local and national productions: Pittsburgh A Popular Place For TV Shows
  • A vision for a thriving sector
  • Pittsburgh: We Can Make It Here
  • Let's greenlight Pittsburgh
