Firefighters knocked down an attic fire at motion picture studio Melody Ranch in Placerita Canyon on Thursday morning.

The fire was first reported at 11:14 a.m. with smoke showing on Oakcreek Avenue, according to Marvin Lim, a spokesman at the Los Angeles County Fire Department.

After a quick investigation, nearly 30 firefighters tackled the fire that reportedly involved a two-story, church movie set. The blaze was put out by 11:35 a.m.

No injuries were reported as a result of the incident, according to fire department spokeswoman Leslie Lua.

The cause of the fire remains under investigation. Melody Ranch co-owner Daniel Veluzat, who was not near the site, said he was en route to learn more.
