The center of LA is completely filled with venues, so if that’s the area of the city that you’re looking for - you’re in for a treat. However, if you’re searching for more locations in different parts of Los Angeles, we can recommend going north and checking out areas of Glendale and Panama City. Or if you’re looking to be closer to the beach then go west towards Marina del Rey.
There are many different locations in which you can film. There are indoor as well as outdoor options, and we strongly recommend looking through our website to see some non-standard locations. You can film in a studio, restaurant, rooftop, terrace or a patio, and of course many others. Check Tagvenue’s website to pick your favorite.
Your Guide to Renting Filming Locations in Los Angeles, CA
Los Angeles has long been the center of film production in the U.S. for its photo-friendly neighborhoods, flexible spaces, and inspiring locations. That doesn’t make finding a spot easy. LA filming comes with its own set of challenges: traffic, permitting delays, and tight production timelines. Here's how to plan ahead and make sure your shoot runs smoothly.
Filming Permits and City Rules
Any commercial filming on public property in LA requires a film permit. This includes parks, sidewalks, or shooting on the street. Students need permits too, even for low-budget projects. Permits are issued by FilmLA, and you’ll want to apply at least four business days in advance. If you need street closures, drone use, or pyrotechnics, allow more time.
Locations that look “public” might be privately owned (like outdoor shopping plazas), and these usually require direct negotiation with the property owner, not FilmLA.
Choosing the Right Neighborhood for Your Scene
- Downtown LA: Good for urban scenes, rooftops, or commercial interiors. Fast permit approvals but parking can be an issue.
- Hollywood Hills: Residential with scenic views. Best for outdoor lifestyle shots and upscale interiors.
- Eagle Rock & Mid-City: Popular for suburban house shoots. Easier to park crew vans, and fewer restrictions.
- South Park / Arts District: Known for studio setups and set builds. Look here for multi-set interiors or modular studios.
- Van Nuys / North Hollywood: More affordable, with soundproof studios and lots of space for gear and crews.
Types of Filming Spaces Available
Studio Setups (Controlled Environment)
Great for scripted content, interviews, green screen work, or projects with complex lighting. Studios like Artsy Apartment Studio (Downtown, $40/hr) offer good amenities and easy power access.
Residential Spaces
Useful for scenes in homes, apartments, or character-based interiors. Cute 1940s House in Beverly Hills ($150/hr) or Vintage Apartment for Filming in Eagle Rock ($100/hr) offer set-ready, lived-in looks.
Specialty Locations
Like bars, motels, or recording booths. The Speakeasy in West LA ($100/hr) works for nightlife scenes. C&M Liquor in Van Nuys ($250/hr) is film-ready for crime dramas or indie pieces.
Outdoor or Unique Sites
For animal scenes or natural backdrops, Kindred Spirits Care Farm in Chatsworth ($150/hr) is worth a look. Sunset Estate in Brentwood or Iconic Hollywood Sign House are better for commercial shoots and high-budget projects.
Time of Day and Access
If you're shooting outside, visit the location at the time you plan to film. Lighting conditions in LA change fast. Morning haze, midday harshness, and golden-hour glow all affect the look of your footage.
If you’re filming indoors but want daylight, confirm window orientation and access times. Not all “daylight studios” are usable during peak hours due to nearby construction or traffic noise.
Setup and Equipment Access
- Check power load capacity, especially if you’re using HMI lights or running sound recording gear.
- Confirm parking and load-in access. Many central LA locations don’t have freight elevators or reserved loading zones.
- Ask if AC and ventilation can be turned off during sound recording.
- For multi-set studios like 16 Multi Set Studio ($120/hr, Downtown), plan setup time into your schedule—flipping sets can take longer than expected.
Filming Locations for Specific Scenes
- Motel Scene: Try Motel for Filming in Los Angeles, Eagle Rock ($125/hr).
- Suburban Exterior: Cute Old-Style 1940s House offers a pre-furnished backyard and front-driveway scene.
- Studio Interviews or Podcasting: One On One Recording, North Hollywood ($250/hr), has isolation booths and seating for 30.
Guest and Crew Management
Keep in mind:
- Crews over 15 may require a coordinator on-site, especially in shared buildings.
- Always ask about holding areas, restrooms, and green rooms if you’re bringing talent.
- If catering onsite, check if the location allows open flame or food trucks. LA fire codes are strict on this.

Verified Reviews of Filming Locations in Los Angeles, CA
We absolutely loved shooting at the Huge Black Void Sound Stage! The space is incredibly versatile and visually stunning—perfect for creating bold, dramatic visuals. The all-black backdrop gave us complete control over lighting, and the pre-lit grid saved us a ton of setup time. The amenities were a huge bonus—having a green room, makeup area, and kitchen on-site made the day run smoothly. The team was helpful and responsive, and the whole experience felt super professional from start to finish. Highly recommend this space for anyone looking to shoot music videos, fashion, or anything that needs a clean, cinematic look. We’ll definitely be back!
I am a returning customer for Lex, his space was amazing for the price, very easy to work with and is flexible. Like I said, I'm a returning customer for a reason!
Tito is so accommodating, warm, and professional. He was easy to communicate with and so helpful with fully utilizing his space. Will definitely recommend him to any who are in need of such a space.
The space is great! And Chris was very helpful, communicative and friendly - definitely recommend for anyone looking for a unique space to film!
Vincent and Carlos were very helpful to work with and the space was flexible and provided great backgrounds.
