You can find most film and TV studios in the city’s downtown area. The Dockland Studio, with six stages and a workshop, is located in the redeveloped precinct of The Docklands. Nearby Port Melbourne offers several options, including sound studios. Other studios are in the easily reached West Melbourne suburb of Yarraville. South Melbourne down through to St Kilda are also excellent areas for investigation and have several studios of various sizes. Looking farther afield, Forest Hill, Richmond and Thornbury have options for studio hire that are not so susceptible to downtown traffic.
When hiring a film and TV studio, expect to spend time looking through various dry hire options. Some studios may include basic lighting rigs, monitors, and extra spaces for rehearsals, makeup, art workshops, or wardrobe rooms. However, this depends on the studio, and offers do vary widely. If these are not included in the hire package, studios usually provide the option to hire them on an item-by-item basis. More technical equipment and lighting are not usually included in the price. However, studios can help you arrange the hire of any needed equipment separately.
Melbourne has a fantastic lineup of green screen film and TV studios ready for action, and you’ll find them right here on Tagvenue. Brunswick’s got you covered with No Filter Studios and ON3 Studio, both with serious production-ready setups. Footscray is no slouch either—Indie Film Studios and Got Next Studios are all local favourites for creatives chasing that chroma key magic.
Your Guide to Hiring Film and TV Studios in Melbourne
Melbourne is a hotbed for creative production, with studios across the CBD, Brunswick, Southbank, and further out in the suburbs. Whether you're shooting a music video, web series, TV pilot, or commercial, there’s a studio to match your budget and vision.
What To Look For When Hiring A Studio?
- Location & Access. Studios in the outer suburbs are typically more budget-friendly, but if your crew is based centrally, spaces near public transport hubs like Flinders Street or Richmond Station can save you time.
- Soundproofing is crucial for clean audio. Confirm that your studio has adequate sound insulation, especially if you're recording live dialogue.
- Studio Features:
- Green screens or white cycloramas
- Lighting rigs and blackout capabilities
- Make-up & wardrobe rooms
- Viewing rooms or control booths
- Audience seating (for TV formats)
- Equipment Hire. Some studios offer cameras, lighting, and grip equipment on-site. Double-check if gear is included in the hire fee or charged separately.
- Venue Amenities. Check for essentials like parking, Wi-Fi, catering options, restrooms, and access for large vehicles or delivery.
What Is Included In A Film And TV Studio Hire In Melbourne?
Hourly hire is the norm, especially for quick commercial shoots or short-form content. But if you're planning a longer project, it’s worth asking about discounted day rates or multi-day bookings—many studios offer package deals that save you money over time.
Pricing can shift based on time and day. Evening or weekend sessions often come with higher rates, particularly if staff are required outside regular hours. Planning a late-night sci-fi scene? Expect a small surcharge.
Don't forget the extras. Beyond the space, you might need to budget for:
- Overtime fees (many venues charge by the hour beyond your booking)
- Catering or craft services if you're running long days
- Security or crowd control if you're shooting with an audience or in a shared building
- Gear hire, like lighting rigs, audio kits, or green screen cycloramas (some studios include these, others don’t)
Lastly, always check what’s included. Some studios offer full production support (crew, gear, editing suites), while others are dry hire—just the space. Knowing this upfront helps avoid last-minute stress on shoot day.

Verified Reviews of Film and TV Studios in Melbourne
Alessandro was friendly and easy to deal with. The space had everything we needed, and we would highly recommend it
Laritza was wonderful. She coordinated, accommodated, and really helped the whole process of using the space to film content for a client - who drove down from Canberra. She was very accommodating, thorough, and allowed us to get in and get out of there with ease and comfortability. This space itself is fantastic. I've actually used it a few times with another one of my friends who's in the video content marketing space. This is a place we frequent because the lighting, the windows, the setting, everything is just beautiful. The fact that you can do multiple things in the same space is just really cool. You can use different backdrops, you can use props, there are different spaces you can set up and record podcasts, record specific content. It's great.
We booked the Emerald Hall on relatively short notice but Elmira was more than accomodating and very helpful through the entire process. She went out of her way to make sure all questions were answered and even took the time to show another room that may have been more suitable. The space itself has a professional and european architectural feel which was perfect for what we were looking for. During the actual day of the booking Elmira was again always very helpful and even took the time to setup the space before we even arrived. Definitely would recommend the space for anyone considering it for events, professional photoshoots, weddings or anything else - also thanks again to Elmira for the amazing service right from the start till the end aswell, cannot recommend highly enough.
The space was huge! And it had so many beautiful spots and props for set dressing for a film shoot, we were able to utilise the space so well to look like multiple locations. Loved it so much!
