Story + Space

A Stage Production Companies Can Rely On

Every producer knows the real cost of a multi-scene brief: company moves. Pack down, load the van, drive, park, re-rig, lose two hours of light and half the crew's patience. Story + Space was built to remove that line from the schedule. Nine distinct studios sit under one roof in Colwick, minutes east of Nottingham city centre, so a brief that calls for a boxing gym, an industrial loft and a domestic kitchen shoots in one building on one call sheet.

For DOPs, producers and location managers, the practical details are handled. Load-in runs through The Neon's vehicle door, so kit, set dressing and vehicles roll straight onto the stage. The stages are hired dry - bring your own lighting and camera package, or add equipment hire - with remote support on hand, and every room has a strong, reliable network connection for dailies and remote client review. Book it once, prove it works, and you have a trusted stage to rebook for the next job.

FAQ

Load-in runs through The Neon's vehicle door, so vans, vehicles, set dressing and heavy kit come straight onto the stage rather than up a staircase. From there the other studios are reached within the same building.

Yes. Multi-studio bookings are common for multi-scene briefs: shoot the gym scene in The Bowery, the apartment scene in The Loft and the kitchen scene in The Pass without a single company move. We will price the package against your schedule.

Absolutely - that is how the stages are set up. Hire is dry, so productions arrive fully crewed with their own packages, and equipment hire is available as an add-on if you need to top up. Remote support is on hand throughout.

Every room has a strong, reliable Wi-Fi and network connection, so uploading rushes, running remote client review or pulling reference mid-shoot all work from the stage.
