Destiny Mitchell remembers standing in 100-degree heat in downtown Truth or Consequences over two days in the spring of 2024, waiting for Ari Aster to call action on the set of 鈥淓ddington.鈥�

鈥淚 was in the protest scene in front of the Bank of the Southwest,鈥� said Mitchell, a town commissioner at the time who answered the film鈥檚 call for extras. 鈥淚 was literally a foot away from Joaquin Phoenix, and it was amazing to be right there.鈥�

For Mitchell and the roughly 6,000 full-time residents of TorC, the filming of the major motion picture came and went like a dust storm in the high desert, shutting down whole sections of town from March through early May of that year as Aster filmed a story about pandemic chaos against a distinctly New Mexican backdrop.

But the economic benefits of Aster choosing TorC as his primary filming location have persisted for much longer.

鈥淚t had a huge impact on the community,鈥� Mitchell said.

On top of a 25% base tax credit film productions receive for filming in the Land of Enchantment, 鈥淓ddington鈥� benefitted from an additional 10% tax credit for shooting more than 60 miles outside either of the state鈥檚 major film centers: Santa Fe and Albuquerque.

The New Mexico Film Office announced this month that film spending in the Uplift Zone, as it鈥檚 called, hit a record $55.74 million in spending in fiscal year 2026, easily surpassing the previous record of $50.2 million in FY 2022.

鈥淚t鈥檚 about creating film opportunities far beyond New Mexico鈥檚 traditional production hubs to keep New Mexicans working,鈥� New Mexico Film Office Director Steve Graham said in a statement. 鈥淔or small towns, there is an immediate and significant impact. This record-setting year shows the value of investing in our communities and expanding the reach of New Mexico鈥檚 film industry.鈥�

It鈥檚 a trend New Mexico film officials hope to continue amid rising competition from other states 鈥� and countries 鈥� looking to attract major productions to film in their backyards.

In 2023, New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham signed Senate Bill 12, which increased the tax benefit of the Uplift Zone from 5% to 10%.

鈥淭he Uplift incentive helps keep us competitive, bringing jobs, production spending and continued economic opportunities to communities throughout the state,鈥� Lujan Grisham said in a statement. 鈥淧roductions may come for the incentives, but they return for our talented crews and strong industry infrastructure.鈥�

New Mexico鈥檚 film industry has generated more than $6.4 billion since 2020 in overall economic impact, according to the Film Office, which counted 63 productions generating $320 million in spending across the state for the current fiscal year ending June 30.

Spending in the Uplift Zone hit $42.15 million in FY 2024 and $32 million in FY 2025.

Jennifer LaBar-Tapia, film commissioner at the Santa Fe Film Office, said the Uplift Zone can be thought of like 鈥渂ubbles鈥� with 60-mile radiuses around Albuquerque and Santa Fe city halls.

Filming outside those bubbles activates the 10% additional tax credit. Inside them, she said, many rural New Mexico towns may be missing out.

鈥淚鈥檓 happy to see it hitting all areas of the state,鈥� LaBar-Tapia said. 鈥淚 just am hopeful that we can get that radius to shrink so that it could benefit even more rural communities, especially northern New Mexico.鈥�

Taos County recently became home to its first film studio: 7K Studios, which owner Jenny Natelson and her partner, Sayer Danforth, launched this spring on the site of the shuttered St. Francis Catholic Parochial School in Ranchos de Taos. Taos is also working toward reopening a film office to help coordinate productions filming locally.

鈥淲e鈥檙e so excited that the state, you know, is like seeing revenue in rural areas for film and production, because Taos is a rural area, and we want to increase visibility for production here, for sure,鈥� Natelson said.

While 7K Studios falls within the Uplift Zone, LaBar-Tapia thinks other appealing film locations, like southern Taos County, Ghost Ranch, Espa帽ola and Hernandez, might attract more productions if they were included.

鈥淚t鈥檚 great that productions are getting out there,鈥� she said. 鈥淏ut I have concerns that truly rural communities in New Mexico are excluded because of the way it鈥檚 structured now. We鈥檙e hoping to get that changed.鈥�

In the meantime, farther flung communities like TorC are still reaping the benefits of a big production coming to town.

鈥淚t鈥檚 almost like a 鈥楤reaking Bad鈥� phenomenon,鈥� she said. 鈥淎nybody who has seen the movie, they seem to have a desire to come down here. Most of the buildings are still painted, saying, you know, 鈥楨ddington鈥� Rock Shop, 鈥楨ddington鈥� City Hall 鈥� they鈥檙e all still here.鈥�
