FAQs

Can we use our own suppliers?

One of our key differentiators from the other studios in greater London is that we remain agnostic about which vendors and suppliers you hire for camera and lighting packages, catering, or anything else. We do not tack on fees either.

How will you work with us to adopt sustainability policies?

We ask all of our production clients to partner with us in committing to adopting sustainable production policies. Our Head of Sustainability works closely with HODs to inform them about options for waste reduction, recycling, and re-use. We can direct materials to community organizations given enough time for planning. Signage around campus will indicate where and how to recycling day-to-day materials, not to let vehicles idle, and temperature control in each building. We will capture as much data as possible for future reporting to albert.

Do you have enough parking?

Yes! Despite being in central London, our location in the Park Royal industrial area means we have several acres of property that include lots for unit base or crew parking. In addition to serving the needs of our clients filming at Garden Studios, we offer unit base lots for crews filming around London as well.
