Filming levels in Los Angeles are slipping amid a global production crunch and escalating competition from other regions to host movies and TV shows.
The three-month period from January to March saw losses in every category of production compared to the same period last year, according to a report from FilmLA, the nonprofit group that handles film permits for the city and county, issued on Monday. Shooting in L.A. decreased over 22 percent to 5,295 shoot days over that span.
