Creative Space
We are a media production company with a studio space in central Oxford. While we use the studio for various client projects, we love to share it with other creatives when it’s not in use, supporting video and photography projects. We’ll do our best to help you execute your ideas seamlessly.
We’re located in the Oxford City Centre. We’re spoiled for choice when it comes to coffee and lunch options. If you’ve run out of props or outfits, we’ve got the Westgate shopping centre right on our doorstep. And if you’ve just realised you forgot your camera gear, there’s the London Camera Exchange downstairs in our building.
Features & Amenities
Tea & Coffee & Lunch
Oh, we hope you love espresso. We happen to have a vintage La Pavoni espresso machine that makes amazing espressos! No hard feelings if you prefer coffee from the guys downstairs. The guys in the Art Café also serve great food.

Parking Space
Being in the heart of Oxford comes with many benefits, but also some limitations. Our studio is located in a pedestrianized area of the city, where parking is strictly prohibited. The nearest car park is the Westgate shopping centre, just a 5-minute walk away.
Equipement offload
You’re welcome to drop off your equipment before parking your car. You can either drive to ///track.silent.glitz and leave your car with the hazard lights on while unloading, or drive straight to our side-door at ///slot.sands.divide New Inn Hall St. Please note that using the second option will require you to pay the Zero Emission Zone charge if your vehicle is not electric (NON-EV).
Shooting Area
With almost 800 square feet of space, 11-foot-high ceilings, and wide paper backgrounds, we can split the studio into 2 shooting areas. We offers a large makeup table with a mirror and a Bluetooth music system. Fully equipped, it is ideal for shooting portfolios, catalogues, editorials, or filming interviews and talking heads. Studio hire comes with 4 Godox lights and a trigger to sync your camera system.

Is your studio soundproof?
- Unfortunately, our studio is not soundproof. Due to open space the room could be echoey so please consider that when booking for very sound sensitive shoots. The building is usually really quiet Mon-Friday but we can’t control the surroundings. Here’s a sound test from the studio. Recorded on the boom microphone.
We only need 1h. Can we hire the studio?
We do a minimum of 4h hire.
Do you offer subscriptions?
Not yet, but we’re gathering feedback from people. If you’re interested in subscription-based hire, we’d love to hear your thoughts.
Is there a lift to your studio?
We’re located on the top floor, but fortunately, there’s a lift in the building.
Are there any gender neutral toilets?
Yes. It’s located at the ground floor next to the reception.
What are my lunch options?
Uh. We’re right in central Oxford so endless. We’ve got restaurants, foodmarkets at the doorstep. We tried it all, so just ask us directly.
