London's only skyline-view studio, in Canary Wharf — ideal for talking-head videos, explainers, announcements, course content and solo podcasts. Run by a film cinematographer and a TV sound recordist.

WHAT'S INCLUDED

• Engineer for technical setup before recording and file transfer after
• Two 4K cameras
• Podcast microphones
• Professional lighting
• Two teleprompters, so you can deliver scripted pieces straight to camera

Once you're set up, we step out so you can record in private, or add Live Monitoring and our engineer will watch sound and picture from the control room.

Edits, extra cameras, makeup, photography and our Fully Crewed Cinema Production are available as add-ons at checkout.
