Out-of-state production companies, agencies and producers planning a commercial, documentary, branded film or long-form shoot in Lexington, Central Kentucky or elsewhere in the Commonwealth.

What Motion24 handles

Producer and production support

Motion24 can support one department or help coordinate a larger Kentucky production footprint. Gates Sweeney brings experience across producing, cinematography, lighting, crew management, field production, post and delivery, so the local plan stays connected to the finished work.

Local crew and specialist sourcing
Equipment, rentals and mobile production-trailer support
Location research, access and logistics coordination
Schedule, venue, vendor and department planning
On-set producing and practical problem solving

Kentucky Entertainment Incentive familiarity

Motion24 has production-side experience with projects using the Kentucky Entertainment Incentive, including planning Kentucky spend, coordinating local crew and vendors, maintaining production records and preparing organized handoffs for accounting, audit and closing teams.

That experience helps us anticipate documentation needs without pretending production support is legal, tax or certification advice.

How we work

1. Send the production brief

Share dates, format, budget range, locations under consideration, attached crew and the departments that need Kentucky support. Motion24 separates confirmed requirements from open decisions and builds a scoped response.

2. Build the Kentucky production plan

Crew, equipment, locations, vendors and infrastructure are matched to the schedule and creative approach. The goal is to solve practical questions before the visiting team travels.

3. Produce with clear ownership

During production, responsibilities stay explicit between the visiting producer, Motion24 and each department. Gates can work as a producer, local production partner or department lead depending on the job.

4. Hand off organized records

Motion24 can maintain production-side records and supporting documentation for the production's accounting and incentive professionals. Final eligibility, filings, tax treatment and certification remain with the qualified advisors engaged by the applicant.
