Outdoor tours are frequently only of the exterior of the buildings but will provide you with wonderful opportunities to photograph buildings and venues visible in movies and television, as well as historical sites for which California is famous. The Warner Bros. studios tour allows for backlot visits and sometimes, live television tapings that are free to the public.
