‘House Party is a comedy film directed by Calmatic (Charles Kid II) that revolves around a wild house party, as you can guess from the film’s title. When a high school student’s parents leave and leave him home alone, he sees it as a great opportunity to throw a grand house party and have fun.
When some of his friends and classmates from high school join the party, it turns into a wild night of dancing, hip-hop, antics, and most of all, fun.
The classic narrative is made all the more entertaining by the brilliant performances of the talented cast of Jacob Latimore, Tosin Cole, Tamera Kissen, Allen Maldonado, and DC Young Fly. In addition to storytelling, you might be interested in the interesting use of filming locations in a comedy film.
House Party Movie Filming Locations
“House Party” was filmed in California and Georgia, mainly in Los Angeles County and Atlanta. Principal photography on the comedy film began in early July 2021 but was halted later that month after several members of the production crew tested positive for Covid-19.
After a short break, they returned to work and seemingly finished filming at the end of September of that year. Since the original classic was recorded all over California, it made sense for the production team to use locations in the same state to truly embody the classic.
California
Several key scenes for “House Party” were filmed in Los Angeles County, the most populous county in California and the United States. The HBO Max film’s production team camped out in South Central Los Angeles, a region in southern Los Angeles County, to shoot some important sequences. Additionally, the Hollywood District served as a prominent production location for the remake.

In addition, the cast and crew appear to have traveled across the city of Los Angeles to shoot several scenes in suitable locations. Due to the county’s vast and varied landscape, many filmmakers tend to visit the region. Several movies and TV series have used Los Angeles County locations over the years, such as ‘Back to the Future,’ ‘Fight Club,’ and ‘Grace and Frankie.’
Georgia
Other parts of ‘House Party’ were also filmed in Atlanta, Georgia’s capital and most populous city. Since the capital city is known for having some distinct topography that includes lush greenery, rolling hills, and the densest urban trees in the entire United States, it is a suitable filming location for a variety of productions.
