FilmLA’s latest report shows on-location filming in Greater Los Angeles dropped 13 percent in the third quarter compared to last year. The city logged just over 4,300 shoot days, with the steepest declines in television and commercial work.

But there are signs of a rebound thanks to California’s newly expanded Film and Television Tax Credit Program, which has already approved 22 new projects — most of them set to film in the L.A. area.

FilmLA’s Philip Sokoloski spoke with KFI's Heather Brooker on Entertain Me and says the impact of these incentives will take time to show, but early calls from productions are a positive sign for Hollywood’s recovery.
