Frequently Asked Questions about our space.
Where are you located and how do I get there from the airport?
First, our location is unbeatable. We're in South Melbourne, one of the city's most vibrant suburbs. We're the first exit as you come from the airport, so you can avoid the CBD—perfect for interstate commuters who want easy access in and out of the city. We are also opposite the tram and the stop is 126 on Montague St and were just across the street.
There's an amazing café in our building that can cater for events big and small, and it's open from 6am!
Our studio is north-facing, meaning you get the best natural light all day—essential for any creative project. No cold, dark spaces here.
We offer one of the fastest dedicated cable internet speeds in Melbourne—500 Mbps up and down.
You'll have your own secure car park and access to a full-size goods lift—big enough for pallets, with no stairs to navigate.
We have our own gym and showers, perfect for freshening up after a long day.
We're opposite the 109 tram — just two stops and you're in the city!
Filming locations are also just a few steps away. From cobblestone laneways, a hilly park at the end of the street and the sanctuary of Albert Park Lake just around the corner, we have it all.
South Melbourne Market is just a stone's throw away — Melbourne's best destination for everything fresh and global fare.
Of course, we have heating and cooling — just as every great studio should.
We include everything you need, from a coffee machine and steamer for those pesky creased clothes, to c-stands so you don't have to bring your own, and of course a professional camera stand.
And let's not forget — a proper cyclorama, not just a half but a full three-quarter curved cyclorama, perfect for video and stills.
Our building provides the best professional front of house for your next shoot and at a fraction of the price the big studios charge!
Let us be your next preferred space.
