What is a "backlot"?
A backlot is an outdoor area on a studio's property where large sets or structures are built for filming. It often features various reusable and adaptable sets, such as streets, buildings, or landscapes, that can be used to create different scenes and settings. Backlots are designed to replicate real-world environments and provide a controlled space for filming without the need for on-location shoots. They are used to produce a wide range of scenes and can be customized to fit various production needs.
