About this space

Within the old merchant building on Cotton Street is a partially transparent roof, that gives the main studio plenty of diffused natural light across its 195 sq meters.

The photographic zone has complete black-out curtains for precise lighting control and boasts an acoustically treated floating ceiling, perfect for capturing clean audio.
The huge white cyclorama bowl is complemented with a comprehensive range of professional photographic and film lighting, and has an optional 8x8x8m greenscreen that hangs from the ceiling across the whole length of the cove’s floor.

Suspended 7m from the studio floor is a bowens higlide system, with sprung pantographs and guide rails so you can easily adapt the lighting to suit your shoot, complete with LED RGBWW lighting, to transform the entire white cove into any color of the rainbow.

We also include a rainbow selection of colorama / paper rolls at no extra cost, to suit every style of shoot.
