Los Angeles film and TV production has shown signs of recovery in the first quarter of 2024 with total location shoot days increasing to 6,823, marking a 23% rise from the previous quarter. Despite this growth, the industry continues to struggle, remaining 20% below the five-year average and below the levels of the same quarter in 2023. The ongoing challenges, including an 8.7% drop in Q1, are attributed to the aftermath of last year's strikes, as reported by FilmLA.
