 Utah just completed hosting the production of two major national

commercials. AT&T along with Proctor & Gamble used venues in Salt Lake City, Park City, West Valley City and Ogden to shoot commercials for the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games.

AT&T shot its spot with five-time Olympic medalist Apolo Ohno at Energy Solutions Arena. Proctor & Gamble used the E Center, Snowbasin and Rio Tinto Stadium.

Both commercials provided hundreds of Utah film crew jobs and included over a thousand paid extras before the holiday season. “These commercials brought back the spirit of the Olympics to the venues that were constructed for the Utah 2002 Winter

Olympic Games,” said Marshall Moore director of the Utah Film Commission. “We are excited that these companies chose Utah to feature their products and look forward to seeing them air during the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games.”
For the first time in more than thirty years Proctor & Gamble is in the process of building a new “greenfield” manufacturing facility. Box Elder County, Utah was selected as the site for the plant, which is projected to commence production in fall of 2010. When the plant begins production it is expected to employee over 300 people.
