The mission of the Gauteng Film Commission is to cultivate, facilitate and enhance an environment that allows the film and television industry to play a meaningful role in the socio-economic development of Gauteng.

The core business of the Gauteng Film Commission is to transform the Gauteng film and TV sector into a world-class industry through the following functions:

  • Increase the number of local and international film productions using GFC services, i.e. permit facilitation, location promotion and logistical support
  • Conduct relevant research in order to become a hub of industry-related information
  • Increase the number of jobs created in the film industry through the support and facilitation of the Gauteng Film Commission
  • Increase enterprise ownership and participation by previously disadvantaged groups, i.e. black people, women and people with disabilities
  • Contribute to an increase in and access to locally produced films through screenings, workshops, cinema exhibitions and broadcast partnerships, with the emphasis on under-resourced areas
  • Develop and maintain effective business processes

The Gauteng Film Commission also markets Gauteng province, with its world-class industry infrastructure, recognised expertise and wide range of locations, as a destination of choice for filming.
