MADISON, Wis. (AP) - The future of Wisconsin's film tax incentives will be discussed before a screening of the Tony Shalhoub film "Feed the Fish."
The screening and panel discussion is Dec. 8 in Madison.
"Feed the Fish" qualified for tax incentives when it was being filmed in northern Door County in 2009. Gov. Jim Doyle dramatically scaled back the incentives last year but Gov.-elect Scott Walker said during the campaign he wants to retool the program.
Actor and producer Mark Metcalf is moderating the panel discussion that will include four Wisconsin filmmakers and three board members of Film Wisconsin. Ideas for improving the incentive program were to be discussed.
"Feed the Fish" premiered in Wisconsin earlier this year. Shalhoub is a Green Bay native.
