Northern Ontario Film Studios (NOFS) officially opened their North Bay location on Friday, Oct. 28.

NOFS has been working closely with its partners in the region to offer a full-service facility dedicated to the feature film industry in North Bay.

This studio launch will begin to provide the resources and infrastructure necessary to support the ever growing industry in North Bay.

"With an established facility in Sudbury, NOFS is dedicated to expand across Northern Ontario to ensure growth and sustainability for the film industry in Northern Ontario," said a news release from NOFS.

In 2015, NOFS serviced 15 of 16 film and television projects in the Sudbury area, and six projects in other parts of Northern Ontario, attracting more than $30 million of economic development for the region.

Its sister company, Hideaway Pictures, is a full-service feature film and television production company behind the very popular Flowershop Mystery Series, featuring Brooke Shields and Beau Bridges; Christmas With Tucker, starring James Brolin; and five more films shot in the North Bay and surrounding area since 2013.

The Northern Ontario Film Studios is located at 1765 Jane Street, North Bay.
