Out of all of Tim Burton's films, I feel Ed Wood is the most solid in terms of story, acting and direction. I didn't have much interest in doing locations for this film until I was asked to find the "studio" used in the movie. After that, I thought I might as well check the other locales out.
First up, are some shots of Johnny Depp at an actual studio, Warner Brothers....

The Larchmont Studios was kind of tricky to find. First up is the walk to the studio Vampira takes after she get off the bus. She walks into the back of the studio here....
