Imperial Art Studios (www.ImperialArtStudios.com ) provides commercial & raw warehouse spaces, connecting film and photo production companies with commercial real estate investors. But, our services go beyond that - we tailor locations to the specific needs of our clients, listening and providing exceptional service in a niche market. Our clientele is wide-ranging, and we provide spaces that enable: • Film and photo production • Art, music, fashion, and corporate events • Pop-up galleries, immersive productions, meetings, and exhibits • Base-camp and parking • Fabrication facilities for all sorts of creative projects, small or large • Temporary storage for sets and art installations Our inventory is constantly growing - particularly base camps, temporary mills, and event spaces. The renaissance of DTLA Arts District has diminished temporary available space for creative short-term use. Given this growth, we are constantly looking for commercial/ warehouse space from 20 - 50K square feet that can be rented for up to six months. Because of the niche service we provide, most of our clients come on a referral basis. We contract in the property owner's name with funds paid either up front or the first morning of production. Negotiations typically begin either around two weeks in advance for larger budget shoots or a day or two for smaller productions. Checks are made directly to the property owners along with insurance and permits when applicable. Only after the transaction/ production has completed, Imperial Art Studios makes a standard 30% commission that we invoice upon conclusion of the contract. Imperial Art Studios is a business member of the Location Managers Guild International (www.locationmanagers.org ) Feel free to call, text, or email anytime with any further inquiries. Thank you for your interest in Imperial Art Studios, and I hope you have a great week.

September 13, 2024
Over the last 10 months, LA's Blue Moon Cleaning has partnered with a few major LA feature films to provide cleaning and restoration services for their LA filming locations. Since last year's actor's strike, the company has partnered with an average 1 new feature film per quarter. Could this represent the jump in LA's feature film activity we've all been waiting for? "It's nice to see feature films coming back to LA", said Walter Rubio, Blue Moon's quality assurance supervisor. One of Blue Moon's feature film clients filmed for 10 to 15 weeks in a densely-populated section of LA's West Adams neighborhood. Everything was spread out over a huge footprint comprising a collection of apartment buildings, outdoor courtyards, back alleys, sidewalks, streets, yards, and more. It was one of the largest neighborhood footprints for which Blue Moon has ever cleaned for a feature film. Exterior areas required trash and debris removal, animal waste cleanup, steam pressurewashing, and landscaping. Interior apartment walls and ceilings required scrubbing, antifungal treatments, pest control, and odor removal. During prep, Blue Moon dispatched a large crew of professional deep cleaners to perform the initial revitalization. During shoot days, Blue Moon maintained the cleanliness of filming sets and surrounding areas. When filming was done, Blue Moon provided a final strike cleaning that restored beauty and charm to this historic LA neighborhood. For nearly 30 years, Blue Moon has cleaned for many of Hollywood's top box office feature films. The company understands the unique cleaning needs of the entertainment industry. Since 1996 when Ernesto Luna started Blue Moon, the company has remained committed to delivering trusted cleaning and restoration services.
