Overview

• SP Media Group, led by Steven Paul, has acquired Avenue Six Studios in Van Nuys, California, featuring four soundstages and a New York-style backlot.
• Paul plans to film three productions at the newly acquired studio this year, marking a shift from his recent overseas projects in Bulgaria.
• Future upgrades to the facility include an LED virtual production stage and a full-service post-production suite to modernize its capabilities.
• Paul collaborated with Jon Voight and Scott Karol on a federal incentive plan, which includes tax credits and tariffs, currently under review by the White House.
• Industry unions back limited tax credits but oppose tariffs, as stakeholders continue to meet to shape policies supporting domestic production.
