The Harney County Chamber of Commerce announces that Travel Oregon has commissioned Primefilmsites LP to produce a 17- episode HDTV destination series to brand and market Oregon to a global audience.

This series will be broadcast on Travel Channel Europe to 48 million households across Europe including those in Oregon’s targeted markets of Benelux (Belgium and Luxembourg), France, Germany, Italy, The Netherlands and the United Kingdom. Recent research indicates that 86 percent of the Travel Channel Europe audience travels overseas a minimum of once per year.

On March 28, the film crew from Primefilmsites LP will be in Harney County. The crew will be filming the migratory birds during the first part of their day. They will then film the Peter French Round Barn, which will be featured in the Travel Oregon Real West episode and the Crystal Crane Hot Springs, which will be part of an episode showcasing the many hot springs in Oregon.
