Location Managers Help L.A. Fire Victims Who’ve Lost Their Homes While ‘Locationland’ Series Documents What’s Been Saved


Locationland, a new digital series, is documenting the losses to film and TV history as well as what has been saved for posterity.

In an interview with the new PBS SoCal digital series Locationland, location manager Danny Finn describes the kismet moment when he discovered that the house used for Freaky Friday in 2003 was still standing and still owned by the same woman. Flannery and cohorts Lori Balton, Aaron Cota, Elizabeth Reynolds – all of whom worked on Apple TV+’s Shrinking together – joined with Ian Rutherford – key assistant location manager on Netlix’s Griselda – to create T he Eaton and Palisades Fire Photo Project. It offers “first-hand accounts of the creative people who brought cinematic SoCal to the big screen.” The show also looks at the impact that film and TV have on local communities as well as “set-jetting” as a new form of movie tourism.
