How Did Post-production For Orville Season 3 Happen?
Since it is a Science fiction film, the efforts needed for post-production were the same as the production part. The producers started looking for a location in New Mexico and Colorado. However, thanks to California Film & Television Tax Credit Program, they got the opportunity of filming the post-production scenes in California only. Blessed are those production houses that are eligible for taking advantage of the Tax credit program as the state government provided added benefits for filming outside the Hollywood Studio zone. Due to it, production took the cast and crew to the Southern part of the state.
