Film-Related Employment Change Around 2023 

This chart compares 10 strongest results from May 2023 to May 2025 in film-related employment. It shows how employment across selected film-related occupations changed around 2023, providing timing context rather than a direct cause-and-effect explanation.

Employment figures cover selected film-related occupations across all industries and do not represent film-industry-only payroll employment.
The May 2022–May 2023 period covers one year, while May 2023–May 2025 covers two years, so the percentages are not directly comparable annual growth rates.
The chart provides timing context around the 2023 Hollywood labor disputes and broader industry normalization but does not establish that these events caused the reported changes.
Metro names refer to metropolitan areas rather than city limits.
