    Finalists Announced For 31st Annual California On Location Awards

    October 6, 2026

    Fifty on-location productions represented, including 30 shot entirely in California; Film Liaisons in California Statewide to name winners December 6 at LA's Orpheum Theatre HOLLYWOOD, CA - October 2, 2026 -- Film Liaisons in California Statewide (FLICS) today announced the finalists for the 31st annual California On Location Awards (COLAs), which recognize the location managers, location teams, and public employees who help make filming possible across California. Winners will be announced on Sunday, December 6, 2026, at the Orpheum Theatre in downtown Los Angeles. Studio feature finalists include the location managers and teams behind "Behemoth!," "Jumanji: Open World," "Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu," "The Fifth Wheel," "The Further Mis-Adventures of Cliff Booth," and "Tyrant." Television finalists include "9-1-1," "Abbott Elementary," "Bad Monkey," "Ballard," "Baywatch," "Bosch," "Euphoria," "Fallout," "Hacks," "Lucky," "Margo's Got Money Troubles," "Shrinking," "The Comeback," "The Hawk," "The Land," "The Morning Show," and "The Paper." Thirty of this year's 50 finalist productions were filmed entirely in California, up from 25 last year, and 20 participated in the state's Film and Television Tax Credit Program, which was expanded in 2025. In all, the 189 finalists include location professionals from film, television, commercial, and digital productions, along with public employees. According to figures submitted with the nominations, the productions account for more than 1,300 shoot days at more than 750 locations in 21 counties, from Siskiyou County near the Oregon border to Imperial County near the Mexican border, and from the Pacific coast to the Eastern Sierra. "This year's finalists show the skill and creativity of location professionals working in every corner of California," said FLICS President and Humboldt-Del Norte Film Commissioner Cassandra Hesseltine. "For the film offices that support these productions every day, seeing more finalist projects filmed entirely in California is a sign that incentives are bringing work back to communities across the state. We also know many in our industry are still waiting for that work to return, and our members are committed to helping make that happen." This year's program adds a New Media category, which recognizes location work on content made for digital platforms, including social media, online and user-generated video, video podcasts, websites, and apps. The first New Media finalists are all brand-produced: a Red Bull parachute and sky surfing stunt on the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge, a Mercedes-Benz production filmed on the Sixth Street Viaduct in Los Angeles, and Adobe's scripted comedy series "The Marketers," which premiered on YouTube. Presented by FLICS, the COLAs have grown to become the largest awards program and industry event focused on recognizing the work of California location professionals. Finalists are selected by FLICS members and a steering committee of Teamsters Local 399 members, and winners are chosen by a panel of industry experts. Award categories include studio and independent feature films, one-hour and half-hour television series, limited series, reality television, commercials, music videos, stills, and new media, along with Public Employee of the Year awards at the city, county, and state levels. Presenting Sponsors for the 2026 California On Location Awards are Film Lancaster, FOX Studio Lot, BH Properties | Oakland Hills Campus, and Teamsters Local 399. Gold Level Sponsors include the California Film Commission, FilmLA, Film Santa Clarita, Film Shasta, and Riverside County Film Commission.

  3. 4Wall Illuminates Rainbow Kitten Surprise's Bones Tour

    4Wall Illuminates Rainbow Kitten Surprise's Bones Tour

    October 1, 2026

    NASHVILLE, TN - Max Lenox spent years on the road as Rainbow Kitten Surprise's Touring Lighting Director, with 4Wall Entertainment serving as the band's lighting supplier from the start. Now a Project Manager at 4Wall Entertainment's Nashville office, he returned to his roots to design the band's iridescent visuals for their Bones Tour with a complete lighting and rigging package. Starting as their Touring Lighting Director in 2018, Max spent the next six years on the road with the band, helping bring their live shows to life and forging a close-knit relationship with the group before joining 4Wall in 2024. Bringing the Bones Tour to life meant approaching the creative process from both sides of the industry, as the band's designer and now their vendor, a shift in the role that shaped how he approached the production. "Having toured with the band for so many years, I understand what they're trying to achieve creatively and what the crew needs to make that happen every day," Lenox said. "Being on the 4Wall side now lets me help bridge those conversations early in the process and make decisions that support both the creative vision and the practical realities of touring. It's been a really rewarding transition because I still get to contribute to the show, just from a different seat." The goal was to produce a rig capable of delivering a spirited variety of looks while preserving the freedom of the stage. To achieve that balance, Lenox deployed ACME Tornado and Pixel Line fixtures for their compact dimensions and wide-ranged capabilities. "We landed on an upstage wall of Tornados and Pixel Lines that gave us an incredible amount of versatility while keeping the risers and downstage area clean, which was something the band specifically wanted," Lenox explained. "The result was a system that could be subtle and intimate one moment, then completely transform the stage the next." Lenox's vibrant history with the band alongside his extensive gear knowledge, equipped him with a fundamental understanding of the band's visual identity. "When I was touring, I was living in the show every night. I'd constantly make adjustments based on what I was seeing in different venues and how the band evolved over the course of a tour," he said. "Working at 4Wall now shifts my focus more toward the planning and logistics that make those shows possible. Instead of concentrating on what happens during the performance, I'm thinking about how to deliver a system that's reliable, efficient, and gives the touring team everything they need to succeed." Though his title had changed, his creative instincts stayed sharp, continuing to draw on the diverse spectrum of emotions and energy throughout the band's frenetic setlists. "There are a few moments [in the show] that always stand out. One is the Kabuki drop during "Dang," when it reveals the first big beam look with the Tornados on the opening chorus," Lenox said. "The crowd explodes and can't get their phones out fast enough." The design also featured Mega Lite M-Spheres, which created ethereal mirror-ball-inspired scenes throughout the show. "Another is during Ethan [Goodpaster]'s guitar solo in 'When It Lands,' when the entire rig slowly fans toward him as he climbs onto the drum riser," Lenox said. "And then there's 'Workout,' where we spend most of the song slowly building tension before everything peaks during the final chorus, with the M-Spheres (our affectionately named "Robo Discos") erupting into a full rainbow strobe." Lenox worked closely with longtime friend and Rainbow Kitten Surprise Tour Director Mitchell Kenne of Boundless Productions to translate the designs into an optimized rig. "We toured together for quite a few years. He's such a great designer to begin with and a great project manager as well," Kenne said. "Since Max's been on the road so much already, he knows what it takes to put on a show that can be easily toured depending on what venues we go into, especially with a band like RKS, we go to a lot of different sizes at all times and have to do a lot of scaling." The two first crossed paths in 2018 on tour with Iceland-based band Kaleo, and by the time Kenne officially joined Rainbow Kitten Surprise's crew in 2019, collaboration between them came naturally. "We spend a lot of time balancing creative goals with venue flexibility, truck space, budgets, and the realities of touring," Lenox said. "There's always a healthy amount of back-and-forth to make sure what looks great on paper is something the crew can efficiently build and maintain every day." To streamline logistics, they designed the rig around Tyler Truss Lighting Ladders, creating a system built for easy transportation and adaptability to any venue footprint. "The focus of the rig we have on this tour revolves around Tyler Ladder truss systems," Kenne said. "Half of them ride on Tyler Rolling Bases and the other half roll in on Tyler Carts. How we deploy them is that we have inverted motors that lift the upper parts of the ladders. We then drop those onto the ladders on the base, which makes a quick, efficient, and easy deployment." Challenges across the tour were minimal, rarely amounting to more than tight venue logistics. Because Lenox and Kenne's plan accounted for space constraints, load-in and setup often wrapped within three hours. "4Wall takes really good care of our gear," Kenne said. "If we ever run into issues, they're very on top of sending out replacements since there's always things that come up on the road. The amount of different products 4Wall carries is helpful to come up with different designs. They're a very resourceful company that allows us to do almost anything we want." Lenox's unique dual role and well-established connection with the Rainbow Kitten Surprise team, combined with 4Wall's expansive and reliable resources, were instrumental in the rig's smooth execution throughout the tour. From his years behind the console to his current role at 4Wall, Lenox credited his collaborators as essential to the success of the Bones Tour's visual spectacle. "Huge credit goes to Austin Schneider, our lighting programmer, for somehow translating my endless tweaks, last minute ideas, and oddly specific requests into reality," Lenox concluded. "I'd also like to recognize Michelle Saintey, our Touring Lighting Director, who executes the show flawlessly night after night on the road. Elizabeth "Nugget" Weller has been an all-star lighting Crew Chief, and Whitney Wilson has been an awesome lighting technician. A special thanks to Matt King, another Project Manager at 4Wall Nashville, who has been a huge help assisting me with this project this year from the 4Wall side of things. A design is only as good as the people bringing it to life, and all of them have been instrumental in making this tour what it is."[GU1.1] GEAR LIST ACME Lighting Tornado ACME Pixel Line Rogue Outcast 2X Wash Maverick Storm 2 Profile Mega Lite M-Sphere ROBE IFORTE Followspot ClayPaky Ultimo Sharpy Kabuki Solenoid - Chabuki Chabuki Curtain Drop Solenoid

  4. BULLITT NIGHT, Celebrating 58 Years of a Cinematic and Automotive Icon

    BULLITT NIGHT, Celebrating 58 Years of a Cinematic and Automotive Icon

    September 30, 2026

    The October 17th celebration will bring together film, automotive and entertainment enthusiasts to experience Bullitt as it was meant to be seen - on the big screen. And for one night, Bullitt comes home. This is a rare opportunity , on October 17, 2026-the 58th anniversary of its original release date-we will watch Bullitt on an original 35mm film print I obtained through Warner Bros. Archives, projected in the Steven J. Ross Theater on the backlot of Warner Bros. Studios . Near the theater will be a film-accurate 1968 Bullitt Mustang on display, offering a fantastic photo opportunity for all attendees, the physical embodiment of cinematic history, together in one extraordinary night. Tickets are ONLY available on Eventbrite, under "BULLITT NIGHT", or click on the links below: VIP TICKETS $64.80 - CLICK HERE Admission w/preferred seating + gift: GENERAL ADMISSION TICKETS $43.45 - CLICK HERE Admission for any non-reserved seating: Free Parking is on the studio lot , gate entry and parking information will be provided to registered ticket holders a few days prior to the event. If you own a cool car, drive it to the event , so the attendees have some awesome rides to check out before the event begins.

    "BULLITT NIGHT"

    3:00 PM - 3:59 PM - Doors Open & Guest Arrival 4:00 PM - 4:59 PM - Opening Remarks/Special Guests 5:00 PM - 6:54 PM - Feature Presentation "Bullitt" 6:55 PM - 7:00 PM - Post-Screening Remarks Bullitt Night is produced by Bullitt.Studio founder Gregory Harrison, with proceeds benefiting Boys Republic , a private, nonprofit, boarding school in Chino Hills, California. Boys Republic is dedicated to guiding troubled and at-risk teenagers toward productive, self-reliant, and fulfilling lives. It is also where a young Steve McQueen resided in 1946; McQueen credited the school with giving him the discipline to turn his life around . Bullitt was released on October 17, 1968, and was a critical success, praised for its screenplay, editing, music, and action sequences . The film's car chase sequence is regarded as one of the most influential in motion picture history . It is considered the Gold Standard and it changed how chase scenes are filmed to this very day. Bullitt also received several awards and nominations, including an Academy Award for Best Film Editing and a nomination for Best Sound , in addition to many other accolades earned in filmmaking. The film's impact extends far beyond Hollywood. The 1968 Ford Mustang GT fastback driven by McQueen became one of the most recognizable automobiles in movie history, helping establish an enduring connection between the Ford Mustang and American cinema.

    A True Theatrical Experience

    For many guests, Bullitt Night may be their first opportunity to experience the film in a genuine theatrical environment rather than on a television, computer or home streaming system. The screening is being designed as a true big-screen presentation, with a screen approximately 60 feet across and immersive surround sound, allowing audiences to experience the scale, editing, photography and sound of Bullitt in a way that is increasingly rare nearly six decades after its original theatrical release. There will be a Silent Auction where you can win a flight in a World War II fighter/trainer aircraft from the Palm Springs Air Museum; a large, explosive, over-the-top floral arrangement with die casts of the famous cars from the chase scene in the movie (see below); movie posters printed directly from the original artwork in the studios' archives and signed by the McQueen family , and; other items. So bid well, because the proceeds benefit at-risk youths in the care of Boys Republic . The evening will also feature ABC-7's Automotive Reporter, Dave Kunz, as our special guest emcee who will bring together people connected to the worlds of film, television, automobiles, Mustang culture and the legacy of Steve McQueen. At its heart, however, Bullitt Night is about the film itself - the people who made it, the automobile that became part of its mythology, and the continuing cultural impact of a movie that helped redefine what a modern American action film could become. And there is a particularly meaningful connection to the evening's charitable beneficiary. Boys Republic, where McQueen spent part of his youth, will benefit from the celebration, connecting the legacy of the man at the center of Bullitt with an organization that played a meaningful role in his early life. Additional event details and venue information will follow by email to all registered ticket purchasers. Sincerely, Gregory J.

    Every Piece of Gear Has a Story

    September 29, 2026

    When most people look at a camera, lens, or production switcher, they see a piece of equipment. At Broadcast Video Auctions, we see something more: years of productions, broadcasts, and creative work behind every item. One of the most rewarding parts of our business is helping companies and professionals find new homes for equipment that still has a lot of life left in it. Recently, we worked with a client who was downsizing a facility and needed to liquidate a large inventory of professional broadcast gear. What could have been a difficult and time-consuming process became an opportunity to connect hundreds of buyers with quality equipment while generating a strong return for the seller. As bidding unfolded, items found their way to production companies, churches, schools, independent filmmakers, and content creators across the country. Equipment that they no longer needed was back in service, helping to create new projects and tell new stories. That's one of the things we enjoy most about what we do. It's about helping sellers maximize the value of their equipment while connecting buyers with the professional tools they need for their next production. If you're considering selling broadcast, cinema, production, post-production, or A/V equipment, now is the perfect time to get involved. Our next auction is already in preparation, and we're actively accepting consignments. Send us your equipment list today and discover how Broadcast Video Auctions can help turn your surplus gear into an opportunity.

    Step and Repeat LA Creates Custom Media Wall for Exclusive Santa Barbara Screening of "Heart of the Beast"

    September 28, 2026

    Los Angeles, CA - Step and Repeat LA brought its custom event branding expertise to Santa Barbara for an exclusive screening of Heart of the Beast , the new survival adventure starring Brad Pitt and directed by David Ayer. The private screening took place at Santa Barbara's historic SBIFF Riviera Theatre ahead of the film's theatrical release. Step and Repeat LA created a custom media wall for the event, providing a polished branded backdrop designed to complement the high-profile film screening and give guests a dedicated setting for photographs and event coverage. Set against the dramatic backdrop of Santa Barbara, the screening offered an intimate setting for the highly anticipated film, which follows Special Forces officer James Belmont and his combat dog, Odin, after a plane crash leaves them stranded in the Alaskan wilderness. The film explores survival, resilience and the bond between a soldier and his canine companion. Heart of the Beast is directed by David Ayer and stars Brad Pitt, J.K. Simmons and Anna Lambe.
