The stage

Three looks in one room.

Shoot on a seamless painted cyc, put motion or stills behind talent on the LED wall, or wash the whole space in color from the grid. Every studio rental includes all three.

46' × 20' × 14' painted cyc

Flat white as standard, paintable to your color for a fee. Built from 3/4″ plywood rather than drywall, so shelves, pictures and set pieces hang securely and patches are easy. The highest-rated noise-reducing insulation runs behind the whole wall.

3/4″ plywood, not drywallSound-insulatedCustom paint on request

23' × 10' LED wall

2688 × 1152 native at 60 Hz, driven by an included PC for video or stills. A 25′ × 25′ floor can be installed to meet the screen.

Podcast & content sessions
