How to choose
Ask four questions. Put the answers in the quote.
Turnaround against the Los Angeles buy. Working days from signed brief to locked master, including render queues, legal and any FilmLA permit window. Lemonlight publishes two-week delivery. Exact's HOYA case study ran 15 production days. Fully generative packs can lock in days if the brief is frozen. Hybrid plate shoots, MBS stage days and broadcast finish run in weeks.
Live action, hybrid, or generated? Innovative Dreams names an 18,000 sq ft MBS stage. Secret Level, Promise, Exact, Gracon Media, Static Free Films and Tiger House Films describe hybrid live-action in their own copy. Lemonlight and AD.JUST publish work that can stay generative. Write the method as one sentence: they shoot plates, they use footage you supply, or they generate every frame.
Rights, replica consent, prompts and seeds. A photography release is not a generation release. If a real person is in frame, you need a release that covers AI use. On covered SAG-AFTRA work, the union AI provisions require informed, clear consent before a producer creates or uses a digital replica, and treat replica use as a separate compensation item. California AB 2602 (Labor Code section 927, from 1 January 2025) can make a replica clause unenforceable when the replica stands in for in-person work, the uses are not reasonably specifically described, and the person was not represented by counsel or a union whose CBA addresses digital replicas. Ask who owns prompts, seeds and unused generations. This page is not legal advice.
Disclosure and AI labelling. The FTC endorsement guides require that an endorsement is honest. A generated face presented as a real customer, doctor or celebrity can be treated as a fake endorsement. A replica of a named person is a likeness problem; a label does not replace the release.
Local rates
Most of the twelve studios bid against a brief. Three publish a number: Exact, AD.JUST and Lemonlight. Video Editing Company, WERZ and NeedACrew publish Los Angeles crew and project bands for hybrid bids. A Lemonlight AI 30-second from USD 3,500 is not comparable to a brand-commercial band of USD 40,000 to 150,000+. Figures reviewed 2026-09-05, not a quote. See AI video production cost.

Doing it in-house
If the job is a social pack, a product loop or a first-pass animatic, a marketing team can produce it on Versely instead of briefing a Los Angeles studio. It is the in-house path, not a listed vendor.
Start from a locked still or a written shot list. Generate picture in the AI video generator with Kling 3.0 or Veo 3.1. Start from hero photography in image to video with Seedance 2.0 when the job is motion from a still. Assemble paid-social cuts in the AI ad generator. Own the prompts and seeds in your account. Keep SAG-AFTRA consent, AB 2602 replica language and FTC review in your existing legal pipeline.
Hire a studio from the list above when you need a director, a hybrid shoot, an MBS stage day, broadcast finishing or a named-production credit.

Do I need SAG-AFTRA consent for an AI commercial in Los Angeles?
If the job is covered SAG-AFTRA work, the union AI provisions require informed, clear consent before a digital replica is created or used, and they treat replica compensation as its own line. Non-union jobs still need a model release that covers AI use. This page is not legal advice.
What is California AB 2602 digital replica consent?
AB 2602, in force from 1 January 2025 as Labor Code section 927, does not ban digital replicas. It can make a replica grant unenforceable when the replica replaces in-person work, the uses are not reasonably specifically described, and the person lacked counsel or a union agreement that addresses replicas.

Static Free Films publishes a Kaguya by Gucci AI spot and names fashion and food work. Tiger House Films names fashion and celebrity content. Gracon Media publishes Toyota, Ford and Chevrolet branded films. AD.JUST and Lemonlight name ecommerce and performance ads.
How long does AI video production take in Los Angeles?
Lemonlight publishes two-week delivery. Exact's HOYA case study ran 15 production days. The other ten studios do not publish a standard lock date on the pages we checked. Hybrid stage jobs follow a shoot calendar, including any FilmLA permit window.
