Filming in the Stateline
Get the best of both worlds.
Major metro areas like Chicago, Milwaukee, and Madison are only an hour drive from Beloit - the access to high quality gear and talent is unparalleled. But unlike our big city counterparts, towns in the Stateline area do not charge for ordinances or permits. There’s little to no traffic. The terrain is easy to navigate, with accommodations from food to lodging being far less expensive. In a nutshell? We want your production to be filmed here, and for a fraction of the cost.
A contrast of repurposed factories, a historic college and pastoral farms — Beloit, WI.
You’ve probably heard of it.
Once a contrast of elite and working class, Beloit is a renaissance town in Wisconsin with weighty post-industrial trappings left behind from a bygone era. Today, the area is an evolved community modeled after factories that once blanketed the landscape, complete with iron, rusty gears, brick walls, and heavy structural beams. Pleasant Street divides a striking river path and historic Beloit College. Modern offices, restaurants, and residential spaces cover the downtown area with the heavy industrial motifs of yesteryear Beloit.
The setting films itself.
So how do we help?
We provide full access to film-friendly locations, production support, community liaisons, and cultural / regional services information. Beloit Film Works offers risk free location scouting for any artist who is considering Janesville, Beloit, Rockford, and other local towns as their next location. There are no strings attached – we are confident that once you see all that the Stateline has to offer, you’ll want to film here.
