In November 2008 Rio Arriba County, and Northern New Mexico College partnered in the development of the Rio Arriba County Film Office. The Rio Arriba
County Film Liaison Office (RAFO) was created to attract and accommodate Film
and Media productions in beautiful Rio Arriba County, and seeks to serve and
further cultivate the growing New Mexico Film industry by developing lasting
partnerships, and a strong reputation of service and exceptional locations.”
Rio Arriba County has a rich film history and offers hundreds of attractive film locations. We also have a comprehensive services directory that’s growing by the day. The film and television production industry contributed over $750 million to the New Mexico economy in 2008 and employs over 5000 NM residents. Come “Film” Rio Arriba and see what all the Buzz is about.
