RIDGECREST REGIONAL FILM COMMISSION

The Ridgecrest Regional Film Commission has helped bring productions of all shapes and sizes, including commercials, music videos, studio feature films, independent films, student films, television series, documentaries, and editorial shoots to California's deserts. Ridgecrest's unique terrain and landscape have allowed the area to stand in for other worlds and planets in productions such as Planet of the Apes, Westworld, Star Wars, A Wrinkle in Time, and Jurassic Park. Many projects shot in the region have been represented with nominations at major award shows including the California On Location Awards, Golden Globes, Emmys, and the Screen Actors Guild Awards.
