    Hi there! Responding to you from El Paso, Texas, right on the Mexico border and yes, we have beautiful, natural backdrops for any type of western, and several areas that would be perfect for your western town; as well as lots of Mexico looks. I have created a location folder for you to access on line – please email me at sgaines@elpasocvb.com and I will give you login info and password. We do not have studios in our area, but please know that we have many empty warehouses that have been converted to interior sets that have worked very well in the past, along with a very talented local set construction crew, art department crew, location management team, grip/electric and so on. It would be our pleasure to assist. Again, please email me sgaines@elpasocvb.com for your location folder information. Texas also has a good incentive package for our area, depending on your specifics. Hope to hear from you soon. Best regards, Susie Gaines, Film Commissioner, El Paso Film Commission

    in reply to: oil rig

    I am a very qualified scout in the Southwest US. (I have also worked extensively in Canada and Mexico.
    between New Mexico and Texas there are dozens of rigs drilling right now. Unfortunately they are only on location for about a month and the average is actually about 3 weeks. (Longer at times…but that is rare)
    Lat year alone i worked on 4 energy/oil related projects.
    I would focus efforts in Roswell, NM or Midland, Texas. (if you are looking for land based operations) If you are looking for ocean/sea locations in the states it would be best to look into Texas Gulf Coast or Alabama Gulf Coast.
    Let me know if we can help you.
