How Bill AB 2319 Could Keep Hollywood Home with Marielle Abaunza
Episode 150
Tuesday, 28 April, 2026
Post is where a movie becomes a movie. Where a TV show gets it's bells and whistles. The edit, the VFX, the color, the sound mix, the sound design, and everything in between. It's where everything comes together. And yet for years, California has had no standalone incentive to keep that work here. In this episode I sit down with Marielle Abaunza, President of the California Post Alliance and EVP of Business Development at Signature Post, to talk about AB 2319, the proposed standalone post-production tax incentive that could be game changer in helping keep jobs in LA. We get into: How we took Hollywood for granted and where we go from here. How 1,800 post jobs have been lost since 2012 and what that actually means for working crew. What AB 2319 does and why the "shoot anywhere, finish in California" model is the shift the industry needs. How New York netted $47 million in state revenue from post credits in a single quarter The people this bill protects are not Hollywood elites. They are editors and sound designers and post producers trying to log enough hours to qualify for health care. This is a movement. And there is not a lot of time.
