Why Philadelphia is a Great Place to Study Film & Video

Philadelphia is known as the City of Brotherly Love, so it may not be a coincidence that Hollywood producers and television execs are showing the city a bit of affection. Top dramas from the small screen such as Law & Order and box-office hits such as Signs are finding their way to shooting in Philadelphia. The historic setting and exquisite old-city architecture go a long way to explaining this attraction, as do the area's pool of top talent in film and the arts. Plus, Philadelphia is a top 10 city in the country population-wise, but top five when it comes to media markets.
