The annual Workforce and Education Forum sponsored by the Fayette County Chamber of Commerce was held Nov. 1 at the chamber office in Fayetteville. Speakers at the event were Pinewood Atlanta Studios President Frank Patterson and Fayette County School System Superintendent Jody Barrow.
Patterson began his comments noting the rapid growth of the film industry in Georgia, which in 2017 included $9.5 billion in economic impact statewide.
Patterson soon turned his comments to the ongoing changes in the industry and the emerging “platforms” such as Amazon, Netflix and Apple.
