No need to apologize, though additional info on what you're after would help.
While I know a lot of the standard MTB routes, I'm exclusively road right now so my recommendations would tilt that way. That said, there are some good fire roads that you could access all along Mulholland, which is just a short (~1k feet) climb up from Studio City.
Here are three general options; if one particularly appeals I can supply a route.
Mountain: Into the San Gabriel mountains, long steady climbs as high as ~8k elevation, scenic vistas of the entire basin, plenty of options depending on distance.
Ocean: Canyon climbs, each typically ~2k feet, varying steepness, scenic views of the ocean and the valley, plenty of options but generally including the mixed blessing of riding along Pacific Coast Highway (ocean views but trafficked).
Ridge: Local route, ride along Mulholland Drive with variety of shorter (~1k) climbs through Beverly Hills and/or Bel Air.
