Some recent productions shot at Pioneer Village have been:
We Shall Remain, a five-part, 7.5 hour documentary series about the history of Native Americans spanning from the 1600s to the 1900s. The first segment of that series entiltled After the Mayflower which tells to story of Wamanoag leader Massasoit. In that segment, Pioneer Village doubled for the Plymouth settlement.
Witch Trial Conspiracy a documentary hosted by Jon Briggs and published by National Geographic in 2011, which presents a new theory about the Salem Witch Trials implicating that the Reverend Paris played a much more active role in inciting the hysteria than was previously believed.
The latest film to be shot there is: The True 1692 a 3D film which tells the true story of the Salem Witchcraft Hysteria of 1692. Produced locally in a collaborative effort between CinemaSalem and History Alive! the film is, according to the Cinema Salem website;
"Historically-accurate, suspenseful, and emotionally-captivating, this new film immerses the audience in the dangerous realities of life in Salem Village at the end of the 17th Century and dramatically reveals the odd coincidence of forces, external and internal, which set in motion the tragedy of the witch trials". The film has its public premiere at Cinema Salem in October of 2011.
