Studios in Korea Town in Downtown Los Angeles. Help?

admin — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 05:50:43 +0000

I’m looking for a good priced (between $500-$700) one bedrrom studio/apartment in Korea Town in the Downtown Los Angeles area. I’m not looking for something fancy. Actually just something decent, and next to FIDM. Any suggestions or websites that provide pics AND prices? Or does anyone own a place that their renting out or looking for a roomie? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hey!

Talk to the housing director at FIDM! They totally helped me look for affordable housing options! Another option is to talk to the FIDM Student Activities Office who makes available this student housing sheet with students advertising that they need roomies! I have looked at that a few times and found some great housing options too! FIDM also has a facebook account with students that might post that they are looking for a roomie…you could try that too!

Like Disneyland, there is Downtown Disney. So I’m wondering if there is something like that for Universal Studios? If so, does it cost anything or is it free like Disney?

Yeah, it’s City Walk. There’s all these stores and food places, a movie theatre, carts along the sidewalk and it’s pretty similar to Downtown Disney. It’s free to enter but you do have to pay for parking.

Where can I get Entertainment book for Los Angeles (UStud and DisneyLand) and Las Vegas area?

Hi, I am going for a visit to Universal Studios and Disneyland in Los Angeles, CA, and also to Las Vegas area with my family of 6. I have checked ticket prices and they are very expensive. I also have heard that some Entertainment books contain coupons. Where can I get the book or coupons?

Hello,
There are a couple ways that you can get an Entertainment Guide. I believe the easiest is to go to their website and order directly.http://orange-county.entertainment.com/discount/home.shtml . This is a direct link to order a Orange county Entertainment guide. Do know that you will have to purchase a guide for each respective area. Los Angeles, Orange County and Las Vegas areas. The LA guide is currently going for $21,OC guide is $24, the Vegas guide is $24.You can also call customer service at 888-231-7283. If you have a CVS drugstore close they sell local guides and you can purchase when you get LA. I hope this info helps.

What is the best studio to record an acoustic duo at in Los Angeles. A live recording that sounds amazing?

admin — Sun, 14 Feb 2010 21:51:05 +0000

I would like to record myself at a studio in Los Angeles. It is an acoustic duo, Acoustic Guitar and Acoustic Bass. What is the best studio to record this style at? I would like to put together a 3 song demo together to send to labels and venues. Therefore I think a live recording would be best.

The best thing you could do is listen to CDs by other acoustic acts from the LA area and see where they recorded. You could also attend their shows and ask them in person, since they’d probably be the best source of information. It’s quite possible they didn’t record at a big studio, since lots of people have home studios where they can achieve the same quality at a fraction of the cost. And if you find an act you like that recorded their CD in a home studio, there’s a good chance they’d jump at the chance to record yours. My brother has a full ProTools studio in his house and he’s won awards for CDs he’s recorded there, though he charges a lot less than studios that operate as stand-alone businesses. The technology today is such that you might be better off working in the home studio of someone who specializes in your style of music. Good luck!

What to do if visiting Los Angeles for the day? Universal Studios? The walk of fame? Or a trip to the beach?

admin — Tue, 19 Jan 2010 20:32:48 +0000

We will be there Dec 30th or Jan 1 or 2nd.

Yes, all of those.

There are literally hundreds of things to do here in LA. Here is my list of “must sees”. Visit as many as you have time for.:

Disneyland: The Happiest Place on Earth. Half a billion visitors can’t be wrong. #1 Destination.
Universal Studios: A theme park that grew out of a studio tour. #2 Destination.
Even if you don’t visit Disneyland or Universal Studios Tour, Downtown Disney District and Universal City Walk are very fun places to visit for shopping and eating. And they’re free to visit.

Hollywood: Enjoy the Walk of Fame, Entertainment Museum, Chinese Theatre and more. You can see a lot for free. The Hollywood & Highland complex has lots of shops and restaurants, and the Kodak Theater. The El Capitan theater, right across the street, is where Disney shows their movies. And the Hollywood Bowl is a GREAT place to listen to concerts outdoors.

Olvera Street/Union Station: Olvera Street is the birthplace of LA, and it emphasizes our Mexican heritage. In addition to the Avila Adobe (oldest building in LA), you can eat at some pretty good Mexican Restaurants, do a little shopping, and taste a churro. If you don’t want to go to Tijuana, this is as close as it gets without going there. Union Station has great architecture from a bygone age. Also, you are 2 blocks from Phillippe’s (see below).

Rodeo Drive, 90210: Packed with exclusive shops, full of gawkers. They all came to enjoy the excess. Free, unless you intend to buy something.

Venice Beach: Los Angeles kitsch and over-the-top culture at its best. Here you’ll find Muscle Beach, street performers and tacky shops galore. Fun, VERY interesting, but I avoid it after dark, when it gets a little TOO interesting for my taste.

Santa Monica: Beach and Pier: Great beach scene and a classic seaside amusement park, complete with antique carousel that has been in a lot of TV and movies. After visiting the pier, you can ride a bike south a couple miles to Venice Beach.

Sunset Boulevard began as a route between the stars’ posh neighborhoods and the Hollywood studios. It runs from downtown to the ocean, passing through the "Sunset Strip" on its way.

Farmers Market and The Grove – A new shopping complex right next to a Los Angeles landmark, It is right next to CBS, so walk across the lot to see if they are taping "The Price is Right". You might even get in.

Griffith Park – Home of the Los Angeles Zoo, Griffith Park Observatory, Travel Town, the Greek Theatre, and Gene Autry Museum of Western Heritage.

Getty Museum – The Getty’s architecture is so beautiful that it keeps me fascinated. No matter whether you like their art, architecture, or view better, the Getty is sure to please. Free.

Attend a TV taping – You can get free tickets at audiencesunlimited.com, tvtix.com, or see the booth at Universal City walk. It’s very interesting to see a show being taped. The most popular, by far, is the Tonight show. Check the NBC web site for all the details there.

Places to eat:
In-N-Out Burger: Multiple locations, best burger in LA, ask anyone.
Pink’s Hot Dogs: 709 N. La Brea, just north of Melrose. You might even see a celebrity. Maybe.
Tommy’s Chili Burgers: Look for the shack, an LA tradition. The original location is at Beverly & Rampart, a couple miles west of downtown.
Canter’s Deli: 419 N. Fairfax, between Beverly & Melrose. Near CBS, you might spot a celebrity.
Phillippe’s: 1001 N. Alameda. Great roast beef sandwiches. Near Union Station and Olvera Street. Watch the mustard, it’s hot.
Tito’s Taco’s: Voted best tacos in LA, even though it’s in Culver City.
The Pantry: Corner of Figueroa and 9th, downtown. Huge portions, they never close, GREAT steak and eggs.

Places to Shop:
Third Street Promenade, Santa Monica
The Grove, Los Angeles
Americana @ Brand, Glendale
Beverly Center, Los Angeles
Citadel Outlets, Commerce
Brea Mall, Brea
The Block at Orange, Orange
South Coast Plaza, Costa Mesa
Fashion Island, Newport Beach
Santee Alley, Los Angeles

Except for the obvious – Universal Studios.

Warner Bros. VIP Studio Tour
Sony Pictures Studio Tour
Paramount Pictures Studio Tour
NBC Studio Tour
FOX Pictures Studio Tour

The best things about these studios is that they are the least known to a non-locals eyes.

While Universal Studios get 1,000s a day, these studios get an average of 50-150 a day!

Prospect Studios, Los Angeles?

Do they give tours? I’d reeeeeeeeeeeeeeally love to see the sets…
Oh… on the wikipedia page it says they shoot a lot of tv series… :S

Sorry, no tours are given. I don’t believe they even shoot anything out there that requires a studio audience, so it’s a closed lot.
