Cinema camera and lighting in a professional video production studio
studio hire

video studio hire

Sound-treated. Cinema-grade lighting. Filmed by the people next door.

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.

The video studio was the second room we built — for our own client work first, then for hire. The walls are sound-treated so dialogue is usable straight out of camera. The cyc is wide enough for proper movement, the lighting kit is what we'd want on our own shoots, and the editor's lounge means client review doesn't slow down the shoot floor. We've filmed everything from talking-head interviews to four-camera music videos in here, and the layout flexes between them without us having to break the room down.

How it works

From enquiry to delivery — here's exactly how the process runs.

Tell us what you're shooting, how long for, and what kit you need. We'll come back within 2 hours with availability and any rental items confirmed.

pre-production call

For day-rate bookings we do a 15-minute call ahead — runs through your shot list, lighting plan, and any extra crew you'd like us to source.

Walk in, kit is laid out, room is lit, audio levels are set. Same-day edits available from £120 on top of the day rate.

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. Properly painted and lit. Re-painted regularly.
Green screen on demand — chroma-balanced green wall that comes down when you need it. Properly lit and reference frame supplied.
Cinema lighting kit — Aputure 600D Pro, 300D, Amaran 200x, plus a full panel kit (LS C300, F22). Gels, grids and CTOs included.
Client monitor wall — HDMI/SDI feeds to a 65" monitor in the editor's lounge so clients can review takes without crowding video village.
Sound-treated walls — acoustically treated for dialogue work. You get clean audio without resorting to battery-tape acrobatics.
Loading bay + free parking — drive-in unloading direct to the shoot floor. Luton-van clearance, no stair access required.
Editor's lounge for review sessions — separate room for clients to review takes, take calls, or get out of the way during setups.
Why book this with us

reasons to pick echelon for video studio

Sound-treated walls and properly-lit cyc — dialogue audio is usable without re-recording, and the cyc cleans up in post without hours of roto work.
Cameras on-site if you need them — Sony FX6, FX3, Canon R5, and a lens package. Listed transparently as add-ons, no markup.
Same-day edit turnaround available — our editor sits on-site and can deliver social cuts before you leave.
Client monitor wall means external review doesn't slow the shoot floor — separate editor's lounge keeps space clear.
Loading bay means you can drive into the room — no stair access, no kit lugging through corridors.
Backed by Echelon Media's content team — we know what shoots actually look like because we run them every week.
We shot a four-cam interview series here over two days and the room handled it without a hitch. Audio came out clean, the lighting tracked beautifully, and the editor's lounge meant our client could review takes in real time.
