    They want to turn one of my morning jogs into a feature film. We’re still working out the details.

    Paramount is a historic studio, so many classic films were brought to life here. Tour was a fascinating journey, recommend the weekends to view inside more stages and sets!

    You'll see set locations of classic films and series and visit two or three stages inside. There's also an interesting outdoor location, it simulates NYC. Nice tour, but expensive for what they offer.

    If you haven't taken a tour of Paramount, you should definately do so. It is informative, fun, and gives you an idea of what it takes to produce television/film projects.

    Tour Guide was an actual cinematographer who gave away many insights about Paramount’s history and felt proud to work there. That made the tour unforgettable. Reserve in advance.

    If you are looking for an opportunity in the TV industry and would love to get your foot in the door, paramount studios is the place to intern. Great learning environment! School credit!

    Paramount has been making movies and T.V. shows on its lot since the 1920s, and their studio tour is fantastic. Call ahead to see if a television-show taping is looking for audience members.

    Another super pleasant studio lot. Everyone is nice - from the security guys to all the folks you encounter. Always a pleasure to work here.

    Be sure to find the bench from Forrest Gump, you can even set your But-tocks down for a picture...that's all I have to say about that.

    Great tour. 3 star sightings, and a look at a couple sound stages. You can take pictures, just not of anything filming. Reservations required. 8 people per tour group. Our guide, Mike, was awesome.

    The VIP tour is a must for any movie buff or cinefile. We had a great 5 hour personalized tour. Its worth the money!

    Zukor, Lasky, DeMille and Goldfish(Goldwyn) formed Famous-Players Lasky in 1916. It eventually became Paramount Studios. The studio stayed in this wood framed building till 1926.

    Out of all the studios in LA, this is my favorite lot to work on. There is so much history. Also, rumor has it that it's haunted...

    Guest parking can be a real shitshow. Beware the valet parking which just might block you in your spot!

    Parking in Gower is whack. Try street parking so you have easy access to your car for deliveries and runs.

    Tours are $35 and MUST be reserved in advance! Morning tours will see more activity on the lot, as afternoons are generally more lazy.
