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.
