Los Angeles On-Location Filming Rose 15% in 2010, Boosted by Tax Credits

By Michael White – Jan 11, 2011 1:24 PM PT

On-location filming rose almost 15 percent in Los Angeles last year, helped by $100 million in state tax credits and an advertising recovery.

Movie production increased 8.1 percent and television production gained 12 percent in 2010,FilmL.A., a non-profit group that tracks and coordinates film permits, said today in an e-mailed statement.

California competes for film production with states including New York and Louisiana that also offer tax incentives. The California Film Commission used the entire $100 million allocated for credits less than three months into the fiscal year that began in July 2010, the agency said at the time. The credits accounted for a 28 percent increase in movie filming in the fourth quarter, FilmL.A. said.

The production of commercials rose 28 percent, the most of any category. The increase is the result of a rebound in advertising spending and greater demand for video content for marketing,Matt Miller, president of the Association of Independent Commercial Producers, said in the statement.
