Location shooting has always been a vital counterpart to soundstage
production, and at times, the primary form of Hollywood filmmaking.
But until now, the industrial and artistic development of this
production practice has been scattered across the margins of larger
American film histories. Hollywood on Location is the first
comprehensive history of location shooting in the American film
industry, showing how this mode of filmmaking changed Hollywood
business practices, production strategies, and visual style from
the silent era to the present. The contributors explore how
location filmmaking supplemented and  later, supplanted
production on the studio lots. Drawing on archival research
and in-depth case studies, the seven contributors show how location
shooting expanded the geography of American film production, from
city streets and rural landscapes to far-flung territories
overseas, invoking a new set of creative, financial, technical, and
logistical challenges. Whereas studio filmmaking sought to recreate
nature, location shooting sought to master it, finding new
production values and production economies that reshaped
Hollywood’s modus operandi.Â
