FilmLA is offering a snapshot of production intensity in Los Angeles sound stages prior to the pandemic. In its newly releasedSound Stage Production Report, the nonprofit has aggregated data supplied by an expanded list of studio partners in an effort toquantify occupancy, film use, and non-film use of 246 certified sound stages and adjoining backlots in Greater Los Angeles in 2018.
The 17-page report also looks at recent sound stage development and construction across five major global production centers: Los Angeles, the United Kingdom, British Columbia, Ontario, Georgia and New York.
Because the new report pre-dates the emergence of COVID-19 and the industry’s production shutdown by many months, it offers a look at production intensity.
