Many of the city’s studios are located in the Downtown area and are within easy reach of the Gardiner Expressway. The formerly industrial neighborhood between Dupont Street and Bloor St W also has several studios for hire. North of this area, around Thorncliffe Park, and also south of this area, around Kensington Market and the Osgoode subway station, there are many great medium-sized studios. Moving further south towards the lakeside, The Port Lands also offers several studios and can be quickly reached via the Lake Shore Expressway. If you are looking to move away from the deep downtown, check to the west, towards Eatonville and the fantastic studios out there.
When hiring a film and tv studio it is best to understand your requirements ahead of time. Studios generally offer a range of large and small sound stages, as well as other important spaces for rehearsal, makeup and dressing rooms. You may also need workshop space and room for props. Basic technical equipment may be included as part of the rental agreement, however, be sure to clarify this ahead of time. The studio may be able to suggest where to hire equipment and perhaps even offer recommended crew persons if necessary.
