video studio hire
A purpose-built video studio that's quiet, lit properly, and big enough to actually move a camera. Cyc wall, green screen on demand, and a monitor wall so the client sees what you see.

music video filming
Cyc wall, smoke, and a producer who's done this before.
A studio that's actually set up for music videos: cyclorama wall, smoke machine, gels, mirror ball, backline rental, and a loading bay big enough to wheel in a drum kit.
Music videos are about look first, story second. We've built the studio to enable big visual decisions fast — gels, haze, smoke, practical lights, and a cyc wall big enough for a full band performance. The loading bay means heavy backline and grip can come straight in without breaking the team's flow. We work with independent artists, labels and production companies, and the day rate is set to be accessible for self-funded productions without compromising on the visual tools.
How it works
booking music video
From enquiry to delivery — here's exactly how the process runs.
send the concept
Treatment, reference images, performance vs narrative, crew you're bringing. We map your concept to room capabilities and confirm any backline needs.
shoot day
Load-in via loading bay, set the lighting, run the performance takes. Crew either yours or we source.
files + optional edit
Walk out with all the multi-cam files on USB. Our editor available for the edit and colour grade at £200/hour.
In the price
what's included
No upsells in the small print. The headline rate covers the kit and the room — add-ons are listed separately and you only pay for what you book.
Cyclorama (3-wall infinity) — pure white seamless infinity, big enough for a full 5-piece performance setup.
Smoke + haze machines — water-based haze for general atmosphere, plus a smoke machine for heavier dramatic looks.
Gels and practicals — full set of CTO/CTB gels, plus colour gels and practicals (mirror balls, bare bulbs, neon strips) for music video looks.
Backline rental — drum kit (Pearl Export), bass cab, guitar amps (Fender, Vox), mics for performance capture. All in-house, no separate rental day.
Loading bay — Luton-van access direct to the shoot floor. No stair access, no kit-lugging.
Optional producer + crew — we can source DOP, AC, gaffer and runners if you don't have a crew lined up.

Shot our last music video here — full performance setup, haze, gels, the lot. The loading bay made loading drums a non-event. We'll be back for the next single.

Common questions
about music video
- Yes — the space comfortably fits a 5-piece on the cyc with room to move. We've also shot orchestral setups, brass sections, and full choirs.

content creation studio
We built this space because we got tired of small businesses paying for one-off shoots that gave them three usable assets. A content day at Echelon Studios is the antidote — multiple pre-lit sets, a teleprompter, and a producer keeping you on schedule.
