Depending on the extent of filming activities, on-location film production may generate use and personnel fees from each of the departments or agencies whose approvals and involvement are required. The accounting work involved is laborious for filmmakers and public entities. FilmL.A. streamlines this process for all involved.

We offer filmmakers a fee consolidation service, which allows them the ability to pay estimated use, personnel and permit fees owed to multiple payees with a single transaction -- thereby saving them time and hassle.

We offer our client jurisdictions a consolidated fee collection and remittance service that reduces their accounting hassles by eliminating the need to invoice and collect funds from filmmakers, whose business entities often dissolve once production is completed. We shield our municipal clients by assuming all debt liability.
