Hawaii bEts on 100 morE YEars Godzilla, Tim Burton and Cameron Crowe all are filming in the state, which recently has boosted its tax incentives even as it celebrates its centennial as a site for film production By Matthew Fleischer X act ly on e cen t u ry ag o, Hollywood silent-film director John Griffith Wray took his production crew to the remote American colony of Hawaii to film two shorts, the first ones ever made on the islands: The Shark God and Hawaiian Love. “It’s fascinating to think that when those first productions came here, this was still a monarchy,” says Hawaii state film commissioner Donne Dawson. “Our queen was still alive. We’ve come a long way.” To mark the centennial of local film production, Hawaii is celebrating. There’s a film retrospective of island-filmed titles in October at the Hawaii International Film Festival and an exhibit on fashion in cinema at the Modern Hotel, held in conjunction with Hawaii Fashion Month. But even as they toast the state’s past, officials are looking for additional ways to lure more filmmakers from the mainland. Spurred on by a dip in production spending — from $245 million in 2012 to an estimated $202 million in 2013 — the Hawaii state legislature recently approved a 5 percent across-the-board increase to the state’s existing tax credit, effective July 1. Qualifying film and TV projects now will receive a 20 percent rebate for shoots on Oahu and 25 percent on the neighboring islands. The law also extended the credit’s sunset date from 2015 to 2019, raised the per-project incentive cap from $8 million to $15 million and made the boosts retroactive to Jan. 1. Dawson says the new incentives have led to a surge of inquiries from Hollywood producers. “We have seen a definite increase in interest since the incentives passed,” she says. Socrates Buenger, owner and CEO of the new 21,000-squarefoot Maui Film Studios, the only soundstage in Maui located in the Kahului industrial region, says that landing new productions is an ongoing process. “We need to let people know we exist here and that we have a really good tax incentive,” he says. When Hollywood thinks of Hawaii, it’s the state’s beaches and jungle vistas that immediately come to mind. But Dawson says producers would be remiss to discount the state’s urban amenities. “People know us for the diversity of our landscapes,” she says, “but our architecture is quite diverse, too. It’s easy to shoot period pieces that take place on our islands because the buildings of those eras all still exist.” Hollywood slowly is starting to figure that out. The iconic Aliiolani Hale, a former governmental palace that now serves as the home of Hawaii’s Supreme Court, stands in as the fictitious headquarters for CBS’ Hawaii Five-0 team. It also played an important role in Tim Burton’s upcoming Weinstein Co. feature Big Eyes. The biopic, starring Amy Adams and Christoph Waltz as feuding married artists Margaret and Walter Keane, wrapped shooting on Oahu in late September. And Legendary/ Warner Bros.’ Godzilla, starring Bryan Cranston, also recently completed a visit to Honolulu. Director Cameron Crowe’s still-untitled Hawaii feature, meanwhile, just started shooting on Oahu and will take advantage of the island’s numerous military facilities. Will Burton’s and Crowe’s projects give local production the boost Wray’s did a century ago? “We are excited to be celebrating 100 years of film production,” says Georja Skinner, chief officer of Hawaii’s Creative Industries Division. “We really feel we have a great tax-incentive program that will take us another 100 years.” With Elvis Presley on Tap, the Hawaiian Film Festival Joins the Party Hawaii-born Keo Woolford’s The Haumana will close the fest. “Movies have been made in Hawaii for 100 years, and we’ve been here for one-third of that time,” says Chuck Boller, executive director of the 33rd Hawaii International Film Festival, which kicks off Oct. 10. The event, screening 209 features, runs through Oct. 20 in Oahu, then moves to the Big Island and Kauai from Oct. 24 to 27. As part of the state’s celebratory party, the fest has programmed movies set in the Aloha State like Elvis Presley’s Blue Hawaii (1961), which will screen on Waikiki Beach. With its traditional focus on movies from Asia and the Pacific Region, HIFF will open with the U.S. premiere of South Korean feature Final Recipe as well as Japanese animation master Hayao Miyazaki’s The Wind Rises and close with the locally produced The Haumana, about students at a hula school. To round things out geographically, the fest’s EuroCinema section, presented by Honolulu’s Luxury Row, will shine a spotlight on 19 European films. — GREGG KILdAy hawaii five-0: mario perez/cbs. haumana: courtesy of hawaii international film festival. madE in Hawaii backlot E xecutive Suite E The Race Award Season Opinion Column Box office Reports Social Action + Milestones & Anniversaries + Walk of Fame & Industry Honors + On Location +8 Decades of The Hollywood Reporter + made in Reports on the destinations acting as film and TV sets. 70 | The hollywood RepoRTeR | 10.18.13 STYLE STYLE AUTOS Madonna mesh for success The Couture Precieuse chain cuff watch by Piaget (madonna is a fan) goes bold in 18-karat rose gold with a pave-set dial featuring 400 diamonds; price upon request, call (877) 8PIAGET PINK POUT POW! retro style Glashutte Original’s Pavonina in 18-karat red gold features a distinctive open-link bracelet that echoes its rounded case; $27,500, at Tourbillon in Beverly Hills and Orange County’s South Coast Plaza Give ’em some serious lip this spring as winter’s red fades and color goes from bubble gum to bright fuchsia By Meg Hemphill Limited Edition Rouge A Levres matte lipstick in Silly by MAC from the brand’s spring 2013 Fashion Sets collection, $15, at MAC Pro Store, West Hollywood night watch Vacheron Constantin’s Patrimony Traditionelle sparkles with nearly 6.5 carats of diamonds; $101,300, at Vacheron Constantin, Beverly Hills and South Coast Plaza Silky Smooth Shiseido’s Perfect Rouge lipstick in Bubblegum Pink has hyaluronic acid that locks in moisture, $25, at Barneys New York, Beverly Hills how audi took oVER hollywood Garner tank top Cartier’s Tank American (Jennifer garner wears a version) in 18-karat rose gold evokes vintage glam with its scalloped bracelet; $36,500, at Cartier nationwide 50 | The hollywood RepoRTeR | 05.31.13 A warming trend in women’s watches emerges with yellow and rose gold bracelets and diamond accents that blur the line between timekeepers and treasured jewelry photographed by Travis Rathbone Produced by Laurie brookins.
