What is AB 1300?

Introduced by Assembly Majority Leader Ian Calderon, AB 1300 - the Music Scoring Tax Credit - would implement a long-sought system for supporting film and television music scoring jobs in California by bringing overseas scoring home. The bill is aimed at bringing the success of our California film and television tax system to musicians and the scores that are an integral part of every film and TV project.
