The 28th annual California on Location Awards have been announced, with top prizes going to the team behind Amazon series “Daisy Jones & the Six,” which took home two awards, one for Location Manager of the Year in the category of One-Hour Episode TV for Jay Traynor and another for television Assistant Location Manager of the Year for Courtney Ochoa.
Other projects that took home two awards were upcoming action comedy film “Beverly Hills Cop: Axel Foley” and the upcoming romantic musical film “The Greatest Hits.” Sheila Ryan-Cruz of “Joker: Folie à Deux” earned a nod in the Feature category for Assistant Location Manager of the Year.
COLA, organized by film liaisons in California statewide, honors “exceptional location managers and teams, public employees, and production companies that help facilitate on-location filming across the Golden State.” The awards were given Friday at the Hilton Los Angeles in Universal City. Actor and comedian Chinedu Unaka served as host, with Dyana Carmella as producer.
“The COLAs celebrate the incredible endurance, flexibility and creativity that location managers and other professionals bring to diverse projects filmed in California,” said Sabrina Jurisich, FLICS president and Shasta County film commissioner. “We are also grateful for the jobs and economic opportunity such projects bring to communities statewide.”
