Lifting you up to the center of the industry stage
What is co-labs?
As Location Scouts, we have an insatiable passion for exploration—discovering new cultures, traversing the world’s most cinematic landscapes, and capturing them in a compelling yet honest way.
Wherever you are on your journey as a Film Commission or Production Service Provider, we’re here to help you to play to your advantages. Production companies also seek locations with a depth of skilled crew, production services and equipment, sound stages, and film-friendly local governments. We offer personalized support, working collaboratively to help you build, elevate, and brand your region, positioning you at the center of the industry stage.
We are proud to be active members of the LMGI and Teamsters Local 399 in Los Angeles, California.
We offer individually tailored services to elevate your brand—whether it's through LA-based networking events, organizing your next FAM tour, designing your new website, or hosting multi-day location management workshops to train your local crew. We're here to support you in developing and strengthening every element of your game.
