PictureNL, formally known as the Newfoundland and Labrador Film Development Corporation, is the lead agency for the province for investments in film and television productions through its equity, tax credit, and development programs. Through its five programs, the PictureNL offers local producers and outside producers/productions the support needed to help the province’s production sector to flourish.
