Here’s Every TV Pilot and Their Filming Location

Date:

Pilot Season is here and here’s where every TV pilot is filming this year.

Pilot season is ramping up production across the country and Los Angeles is the #1 city for TV pilots this year.

According to a report by Deadline, Los Angeles will film the most TV pilots in the world.

California’s new $330 million-a-year tax credit, which was expanded to TV pilots, is paying dividends as the number of broadcast drama pilots filmed in Los Angeles has risen for a second consecutive year. Following the dismal all-time low of five broadcast pilots in 2014, L.A.’s tally went up to seven last year. This year, there are 10 broadcast drama pilots shot in LA, plus one in San Diego (Fox’s baseball-themedPitch, which is being produced with the cooperation of the Padres). That brings the total of California-made broadcast pilots to 11, inching closer to the 2013 level of 13.

The reason for so many productions filming in California is due to the recently overhauled film tax credits. In fact, two of the 2016 pilots have already been approved for a TV pilot.

Meanwhile, New York City’s pilot season took a major hit as the number of TV pilots drop by nearly 50% over the past two years. But, that’s not really a big issue as Netflix and Marvel are constantly filming their new streaming series.

The decline on the pilot side has been offset by the deal with Disney for the Marvel TV series on Netflix, dubbed as the largest film or television production project commitment in New York State.

Across the border, Canada’s film industry is booming. Vancouver and Toronto’s combined total of TV pilots are more than the Los Angeles’ film industsry. What’s important to point out is that Canada is setting the record for the most comedy pilots filmed there.

Louisiana’s pilot season has completely stopped. According to Deadline, due to Louisiana’s move to cap its film and TV credit, there are no TV pilots being shot in the state this year.
