President, FilmLA
To smooth the way for economically vital filming in the region, Audley coordinates a community information campaign to make neighborhoods comfortable with on-location production. The Studio City-based nonprofit agency coordinates permitting for production in 16 cities, Los Angeles County and several school districts. FilmLA promotes its Model Film Ordinance template to standardize industry rules for the region. The nonprofit also collects widely quoted industry data. Audley joined the organization in 2008.
