LA NEEDS YOU
bid for la is
A Call to action.
FOR our crews,
gig workers & vendors
—the lifeblood
of our sets.
The recent fires may have scorched our earth and tested our resolve, but the spirit of Los Angeles remains unyielding.
When you #BidforLA, your projects become a lifeline, directly supporting our talented crew members, vendors, and local businesses as they rebuild their lives and livelihoods. LA still boasts the world's best talent, infrastructure, and iconic locations. Your production will not only support our recovery, but also thrive in this creative capital.
HOW IT
WORKS.
It’s as easy as one, two… oh—that’s it!
When you’re bidding a job and have the option to #BidforLA—do it.
Why? Because every bid submitted is a statement to city leaders that the industry is ready to help LA reclaim its status as the production-friendly hub it once was. With each bid, we’ll track wins and financial losses—building the data needed to turn advocacy into action.
Change only happens when we unite, organize, and do. Now is your time to do.
Give LA a fighting chance. Even if you're exploring other locations, including an Los Angeles based bid gives the city the opportunity to compete for your production, which means work for LA crews who are struggling to find it.
To make it help build your #BidforLA we’ve compiled a comprehensive production directory of all the essential resources you’ll need to create a competitive bid, right here in LA.
