Frequently asked questions

TV ATX is an independent guide to Texas on screen — the film and television made in and about Austin and the state, the independent film scene that grew up here, the festivals that give new work its first audience, and the theaters where the city still watches together. It is part of the WholeTech Network.

TV ATX is about the on-screen story: what Texas looks like in film and television, the scene, the festivals, and the cinemas. The working production side — the stages, crews, and incentives that get a picture made — lives on the production desk here and on our sister coverage of Texas studios.
