LOS ANGELES — A new FilmLA report charts the effect of the Writers Guild of America and SAG-AFTRA work actions on third quarter film and television production in Los Angeles.

Local on-location film production declined 41.4% against 2022 levels.

The contract disputes were not the sole cause of the downward trend, as overall, on-location filming in the region has declined for seven consecutive calendar quarters.

The report was released as SAG-AFTRA contract negotiations have stalled with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers, or AMPTP, following the writers’ union recently ratifying their new agreement with the AMPTP. 

The full report can be viewed on the FilmLA website.
