"Made in NY" Marketing Credit

The City of New York Mayor's Office of Media and Entertainment (MOME) "Made in NY" Marketing Credit program provides qualified film and television productions with advertising in New York City — the #1 media market in the country.

To qualify - a feature-length film, a television film, a television special, or an episodic television or streaming series (regardless of the medium by means of which it is conveyed or created) must have below-the-line production costs of at least $400,000 incurred in New York City and either:

At least 75% of the total shooting days take place in New York City

or

At least 75% of the production's total below-the-line production costs, including pre- and post-production costs, are incurred in New York City.

The production must be completed no earlier than 24 months prior to the date of application to the "Made in NY" Marketing Credit program.

Media packages offered to qualified film and television productions are subject to availability and vary according to the following budget tiers:

Tier	Qualifies for
Tier 1: Below-the-line budget of $10M or more	Up to 40 bus shelters, determined by availability (4 week run) Up to 500 subway cards (4 week run) Production covers the cost of printing bus shelters and subway cards
Tier 2: Below-the-line budget between $5M - $10M	Up to 40 bus shelters, determined by availability (4 week run) Up to 500 subway cards (4 week run) MOME covers the cost of printing bus shelters and subway cards (unless more than 5% of the production company is held by a publicly traded entity or has more than $35M in annual revenue)

The marketing credit is available on a first-come, first-served basis. Participants in this program are required to co-brand all MOME-funded media with the "Made in NY" logo and include the "Made in NY" logo in end credits. MOME-funded advertising materials are subject to approval by MOME and, subject to the exception in the next sentence, may not include third-party names and third-party logos. MOME-funded advertising materials may include names and/or logos intended to inform the public where the qualified film may be viewed (e.g., the logo of a television station) and the name of the owner of copyrighted material included in the MOME-funded advertising materials.

Participants in this program are required to contribute to a cultural institution on a list approved by the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs or to a community organization approved through Participatory Budgeting in New York City. For productions with below-the-line costs incurred in New York City of less than $10M, the contribution will be equal to .1% of such costs. If a production's below-the-line costs incurred in New York City are $10M or more, the contribution is fixed at $10K. The payment must be made 30 days after the completion of the Marketing Credit recipient's marketing campaign.
