The California Film Office and the state’s Motion Picture Council merged last week into the California Film Commission. The reorganization should reduce strained relations between the two entities and bring the job of promoting motion-picture production in the state under one umbrella. The new commission will have 23 members--the 21 members of the current Motion Picture Council plus the director of the state Department of Transportation and the commissioner of the California Highway Patrol.
