Among other measures, we will as that production please follow basic good neighbor practices, including, but not limited to:

  1.  Providing notice to neighbors within 500 feet and to the Oxford Square film liaison 3 days in advance of first production day (whether filming or prep).  Particular attention should be paid to immediately adjacent neighbors to each shoot.
  2. Minimizing evening/night/weekend exterior shots and noise.  Hours should be limited to 7 am – 10 pm. Weekend and holiday filming is generally discouraged.  An extension of filming hours must be specifically indicated to residents and approved on the Film LA permit.
  3. Minimizing parking impacts.  Cast and crew should not park on Windsor Blvd., Victoria Ave. or 12th Street. Trucks should not be parked in front of residence that do not approve the production in the Film LA survey process.

Generators should have a proper noise shield.  If staging generator at a commercial location (e.g., on Pico or Olympic Blvd.) is not possible, generator should be located in front of the house that is contracting for the film shoot.
  5. Avoiding excessive shoot durations and frequency on any single block. 
  6. Respecting privacy and property (driveways, parkways, yards, etc.). Sidewalks and driveways to be kept clear at all times.
