Spiderwood Studios hosted an official SXSW 2010 party with Twitter and The Hollywood Reporter on Saturday, March 13th.

UTLEY, Texas (KXAN) - The scenery in Bastrop County is a big change from Los Angeles, California. Film writer and producer Tommy G. Warren decided to firmly plant his roots in the Texas film industry.

"We're going to have a big sign up there." Tommy Warren points across a room smelling of fresh paint. Imagine Spiderwood Studios, he urges. See it as he sees it. Workers scurry past, building, painting, securing hardwood flooring.

The outskirts of Bastrop might be the next hot spot for Texas film production.

After years in the making, Spiderwood Studios is now open for business with more expansion plans already underway.
