Find Resources Fast
Use our curated list of key Film and Video resources in select locations
Most guides have thousands of listings without any clue as to which are local favorites. Our approach is different. We feature a select list of recommended companies in many of the key niches. Our listings are like a producer’s tip-sheet making it possible to find things fast in select locations such as LA, NY SF and more to come.

Production Hotspot is a different kind of directory. Instead of the old yellow pages model of including everything and everybody for free, and then charging for advertising to stand out from the crowd, we research each market, and consulting with experts, put together an invited list of local favorites. By limiting each city to about 100 of its top providers we aim to be a short cut guide and starting off point in your search for resources. In addition, we also hope to develop a central hub calendar for events classes and screenings, a go to place to find and sell pro gear, and a blog with articles, interviews, reviews and more.
