North Carolina is on this map as a whole region rather than as a place, because Wikidata records 1 video game as set here and nothing finer. The dot sits at its centre, which is not where anything happens: it stands in for the whole area. Nothing is claimed to have been filmed at this point, and no film or series is placed this way anywhere on the atlas.

227 productions were filmed at 188 places inside North Carolina rather than at North Carolina itself: listed below, each with the place it was shot.

Set here, per Wikipedia

Games whose English Wikipedia article says they are set in North Carolina, where Wikidata’s narrative-location statement stops at the country. Still a setting and not a shoot, and still a sentence rather than a statement: two steps from the strongest evidence on this atlas, and labelled at both.
