"One of the dopest locations in LA. Hit them up for that location gold!" - EQ, The People's Collective "The best church studio in terms of affordability, size, site rep assistance, aesthetic, all that...Dope spot" - Carl V Authentic vintage church featuring original stained glass windows, antique pews, 30' high ceilings, arched aisle ways, a baptismal, beautiful natural light and other charming classic vintage detail, is available for filming. The unique and extremely cinematic space is perfect for film, TV, photos, fashion, music videos and commercials. It's large and accommodating, with both inside and outside options! The spacious 4000 square foot ground floor interior features a Green Room/dressing area, a storage room off the main entry (perfect for gear and props) and two bathrooms. A medium grand piano, vintage organ and props are available for gratis use. An architecturally stunning confessional is available as an add on. A large, multi-use (flex space) is located upstairs, with several blank parceled out areas ready to be set designed! Features include a vintage Bible classroom with vintage casement windows and ample natural light. A Cross Wall set is located at the stairwell. Additionally, there is an unfinished, weathered 2nd building on the property with a side alley and brick wall topped by barbed wire, that includes a religious mural, and an old school telephone booth. The disheveled appearance lends itself to a raw, urban street look, perfect for crime or horror shoots (i.e. NCIS, American Horror Story). The outdoors area also features two cottage fronts, large shade trees and green grass. Weather permitting, it's a great area to use for catering, outside seating and social distancing. The total building space available is 9,695 SF. The total lot space is 14, 259 SF. You can literally create multiple looks within one space to stretch your location budget. A load-in zone is conveniently located directly in front of the church and there is ample, free street parking for guests right in front of the church. This large, multi-use space offers a lot of potential for creatives and others looking for a unique, unconventional, statement-making venue. This is a diamond in the rough. A gem, soon to be discovered! SOME HYPE! "The church looks even better in person than in the pictures. The amount of space you get in the base price is a lot. The place is dope, and super unique." - Wavvii, platinum songwriter "Beautiful and versatile filming location. There are so many areas around the church that you can either set dress, or use as is, since the building has a lot of character and a historic feel to it all." - Beatrice Ho, producer ('Lil Bad Katt "Stay Asleep") "This space is just remarkable! It has such great character." - Zach Ambroise, Cinematographer/Composer SOME PROJECTS!
