Film and television "firsts"
The roots of the industry started in Newark with Hannibal Goodwin's patent of nitrocellulose film in 1887.[4] Motion picture technology was invented by Thomas Edison, with early work done at his laboratory in West Orange. Edison's Black Maria, the world's first movie studio, is where the first motion picture to be copyrighted in the United States, Fred Ott's Sneeze, was shot.[6][7]
The Centaur Film Company of Bayonne was the first independent movie studio in the USA. America's first motion picture industry started in 1907 in Fort Lee and the first studio was constructed there in 1909.[8][9][10] Alice Guy-Blaché, widely considered to be the world's first female film director, worked in the borough. Oscar Micheaux's film The Exile, the first African-American sound film, was filmed in Fort Lee along with many other Micheaux films.[11]
Fred Wesley Wentworth was commissioned in 1914 by Jacob Fabian to build the Regent in Paterson, one of the first theaters built exclusively for the exhibition of moving pictures.[12][13][14] The nation's first drive-in theater opened at Airport Circle in 1933.
DuMont Laboratories in Passaic, developed early sets and made the first broadcast to the private home, documented in Passaic: Birthplace of Television and the DuMont Story (1951).
New Jersey Motion Picture and Television Commission
The New Jersey Motion Picture & Television Commission was established in 1976.[15][16]
Many television shows and motion picture films have been filmed in New Jersey,[17][18][19] with incentives offered by the state.
When Governor Phil Murphy took office in 2018 he reinstated the New Jersey Film & Digital Media Tax Credit Program, which had been suspended by the previous administration. It was expanded in 2020. The benefits include a 30% tax credit on film projects and a 40% subsidy for studio developments.[20][21] Murphy signed legislation in January 2023 increasing the state's digital media content production tax credit to 35% of qualified expenses purchased through vendors in South Jersey and Mercer County. In addition, the bill increased the cumulative annual limitation on digital media content production tax credits from $10 million to $30 million. Beginning in fiscal year 2025, the bill also allows an additional $100 million in tax credits for New Jersey film-lease partners from tax credits authorized under other incentive programs.[22]

Fort Lee is home to America's first motion picture industry.[23][24][25] A large number of early films, many silent, were shot at studios and on location in and around the town. With the first constructed in 1909, there were 11 major studios in Fort Lee by 1918.[26][27]
The floor space and height of the Jersey City Armory has led to its use as a temporary studio for many projects.[28] The expansive floor and high ceilings of the Teaneck Armory has been used for numerous film shoots, including Sweet and Lowdown, You've Got Mail,[29] Bogus, and Stonewall.[30]
In 2010, a new Studio City New Jersey was opened in Trenton.[31][32][33] and in 2011, the Ironbound Film and Television Studio was opened in Newark.[34][35]
After the closure of the Meadowlands Arena as a sports and entertainment venue, NBC leased the space and converted it to a major film studio in 2019.[36]
Criterion Group converted a warehouse in Jersey City to the state's largest film studio named Caven Point Studio;[37] it has with three soundstages.[38] In February 2021, Palisade Stages opened its 23,000 square feet studio in Kearny. Supor Studio City in Harrison was converted from seven existing buildings into studios.[39] Another studio opened on Kearny Point in 2022, 10 Basin Studios.[40]
In October 2021, Netflix announced its intention to bid for a redevelopment of a 289-acre parcel at Fort Monmouth to turn it into Netflix's second-largest production complex.[41] Netflix was the top bidder and the plan for the Netflix Studios Fort Monmouth was approved in 2024 with the expected closing date in 2027 and the campus was planned to be completed between 2034 to 2037.[42]
In March 2022, Township of West Orange announced a partnership with, a studio design and development company, MBS Group, to redevelop properties adjacent to Thomas Edison's Laboratory to build up to eight sound studios.[43] Also in the same month, the construction of a major studio at Bergen Point was announced. Called 1888 Studios, it will be the largest in New Jersey and the largest ground-up movie studio complex in North America.[44][45] In April 2024, West Orange officially approved the studio, which will consist of three to six production stages spanning 20,000 to 30,000 square feet each, as well as office and support spaces, and a large parking facility.[46]
In 2022, the city of Newark announced that a major new film and television production studio to be called "Lionsgate Newark Studios," would open in 2024 on the 15-acre former Seth Boyden Terrace housing project site at 101 Center Terrace in the Dayton section in the city's South Ward. Lionsgate Newark will partner on public relations and community affairs with the New Jersey Performing Arts Center.[47][48][49] With this project, Lionsgate became the first to be designated as a state's studio partner which would allow the company to capture additional tax benefits up to $100 million set aside for up to three studio partners.[50]
In 2023, ACX1 Studios announced that it planned to convert the 550,000-square-foot Playground Pier in Atlantic City into a live entertainment and production studio with several ready-to-shoot movie sets.[51]
In 2024, New Jersey Economic Development Authority awarded $9.5 million grants to local municipalities for road, power transmission, and water infrastructure to support developments of new sound stages and production facilities. Those projects included the 1.2 million-square-foot Carteret Stages in Carteret, a 280,000-square-foot studio facility in Jersey City developed by Mana Contemporary, an expansion of Caven Point Studio with three new sound stages in Jersey City, a development of 185,000 square feet sound stages by Atlantic Picture Motion Studios in Egg Harbor City, and a television studio in East Brunswick.[52][53]
Film festivals
Labor unions and entertainment guilds
A large swath of the state is within the "thirty-mile zone" around Columbus Circle in New York, allowing productions to save on travel cost obligations because a shoot is in the same zone as personnel's residences. Entertainment industry labor unions use the studio zone to determine per diem rates, work rules, and workers' compensation for union workers. Portions of Hudson, Essex, and Bergen counties are in the 8-mile SAG-AFTRA zone running from same location.[citation needed]
Filmmaking programs
Rutgers University established the Rutgers Filmmaking Center in New Brunswick in 2011. Though it is a relatively new program, the program has been ranked highly among the nation's film schools.[54] Variety named it “one of the top programs in the United States."
