Today I've resumed work on a Los Angeles video tour but having difficulties. The typical LA city tours encompass a large area and average three hours for a short tour and up to six hours for a grand tour.
Most tour companies try to have their guides keep a good pace and minimize the stops, showing the most popular highlights that people have heard about.
We'd like to show everything popular up close but just don't have the time...I tell my passengers that we'll see as much as we can in the time we have, accounting for traffic, unexpected delays and people returning to the bus late at the stops beyond the agreed meet time. (I've used one of those "will return at " clocks at the stops so even those with limited english knowledge will get back on time).
Making a tour video is similar, it can't be to long otherwise the file is too large to download, and it can't be too in depth, with just quick looks at these things that people see on the tours.
One advantage I have with the video process is the area coverage, since it's impossibe to show everything within ten minutes on a bus tour, the video can jump from place to place without the transit times in between, just a rapid overview in minutes!

LA Hollywood Studios
I'm trying to make a YouTube video of the largest of Hollywood studios! Hollywood is a district of Los Angeles and considered the center of the film industry. Unfortunately only one (Paramount Studios) of the original Hollywood mega studios is still in the actual district.
The significant others are on the outside including 20th Century Fox in West LA, Columbia Pictures(Sony) in Culver City and in Burbank is Disney and Warner Brothers (WB).
Nowdays we consider anything relating to the entertainment business anywhere around LA a part of the Hollywood establishment!
