A strong video usually means two or three locations, and two or three locations usually means a day lost to load-ins, permissions and moving a crew across town. Story + Space puts three of the most filmed looks in music video on one site in Colwick, minutes east of Nottingham city centre: a vintage New York boxing gym, a drive-in car studio with a colour-changing LED ceiling, and an industrial loft. You can shoot a gym scene, a car scene and a performance scene without anyone packing a van.
The Bowery is the only boxing gym studio of its kind in the Midlands, the kind of space artists have been travelling to London or Manchester to find. The Neon takes a vehicle through its loading door and lets you wash the whole scene in any colour from the LED ceiling. The Loft gives you the raw, urban backdrop that carries grime, hip-hop, R&B and indie videos. Lighting, equipment and technical support are included in every booking, so the budget goes on the idea rather than the kit list.
The Loft starts at £75/hr and The Bowery at £83.33/hr, with half-day and full-day rates for full productions. The Brand Content Day bundle at £750 covers a full day across three studios, which maps neatly onto a three-scene video. All prices exclude VAT, added at checkout.
Yes. That is the point of the site: book the studios you need individually, or take the Brand Content Day bundle at £750 for a full day across three studios and move the crew between scenes in minutes rather than hours.
The Neon has drive-on vehicle access through a loading door, so featured cars come straight into the studio. Share the vehicle details when you book and we will confirm fit in advance.
Equipment, lighting and technical support are included in every booking, and The Neon's LED ceiling changes the colour and mood of the whole room on its own. Crews are welcome to bring their own camera and grip on top.
The Bowery is the only vintage boxing gym studio of its kind in the Midlands. If the treatment calls for that look, the realistic alternatives are persuading a working gym to close for the day or travelling well outside the region.
