During the first three weeks following the writers strike, the number of permits for location shooting in Los Angeles for theatrical movies rose 61.9 percent from the same period a year ago, according to FilmL.A., the semi-official agency that co-ordinates the issuance of permits by government agencies to producers. The boost in production was attributed not only to the writers' return to work but also the prospect that the Screen Actors Guild might call a strike at the end of June when its contract with producers ends. However, FilmLA expressed concern that television production remained below last year's levels, particularly production of TV pilots.
