Jason is awesome! The space is perfect and pretty solid for videos. Not 100% sound proof but very decent for interviews. The facilities were awesome!!

I loved this history and the beautiful architecture of the building - the studio has so much character! Jason and Andrew were wonderful to work with and everything was easy. They were great communicators and it was a seamless, enjoyable process. I will definitely utilise this studio again - it was a great experience, and right in the CBD too. Super convenient.

FAQ

The studio has a full-width 2.75m roll in the dark colour and a half-width 1.35m roll in the medium colour. There is no close match for the light colour, but the medium roll could be lit to create a lighter tone, which should not be difficult to achieve.

The studio has several Elinchrom monoblock studio flash units, along with numerous light shapers, large and small softboxes, snoots, umbrellas and strips. Video lighting is not available.
