What the evidence shows
35 new film productions were indeed awarded tax credits in the latest round, projected to generate about $1.08 billion in direct production spending, but the job figure of 30,000+ refers more closely to cumulative or background/cast days across broader program periods (e.g., nearly 35,000 cast and crew in prior year totals), not specifically 30,000+ for these 35 awardees which support around 5,453 cast and crew jobs.
