Dockweiler State Beach is the third most filmed location in Los Angeles County, according to a film, television, commercial and music shooting locations analysis.
According to the Los Angeles Times, the Bird Sanctuary area in the 4,210-acre Griffith Park is the most filmed. The park alone generated 409 production days, including visits by "Southland" and "Sons of Anarchy."

A designer to reimagine the iconic Sixth Street Bridge downtown was awarded this fall.
It will be interesting to see if the bridge, featured in "Grease," a recent Green Day video and many other productions, remains popular after the redo.
