There are three kitchen studios in the entire Midlands. Two of them are in Birmingham, 80 miles away. The third is The Pass at Story + Space in Nottingham - the only kitchen studio in the East Midlands: a purpose-built working kitchen designed for recipe videos, food photography and brand content, hired dry with equipment hire available as an add-on. If you have been driving to Birmingham or shooting in your own kitchen and fighting the light, this is the room that fixes it.
The Pass sits inside a nine-studio facility in Colwick, minutes from Nottingham city centre, so a food shoot can roll straight into lifestyle product shots or a brand podcast without moving location. Pricing is published, booking is online and instant, and remote support is on hand when you want it. Food creators and brands from Derby, Leicester and across the East Midlands no longer need to leave the region.
Members book The Pass by the hour at £102, while everyone else books half days at £350 or full days at £600, with remote support on hand; the room is dry hire, so bring your own kit or add equipment hire. Cover Story is £70 per hour for lifestyle follow-on shots. All prices published and include VAT.
A kitchen studio is built for the camera first: appliances chosen to look right on film, lighting you control completely, surfaces styled for close-ups and space for a crew to work around the cook. A venue kitchen feeds people; a kitchen studio makes content.
Story + Space is in Colwick, a few minutes east of Nottingham city centre with easy access and parking. The full address and arrival details are sent with every booking confirmation.
Yes. The other two are both in Birmingham, around 80 miles away. For food creators and brands in Nottingham, Derby and Leicester, The Pass is the only purpose-built kitchen studio within easy reach.
Most studios make you fill in a quote form and wait. We publish every rate and let you book online instantly, so you can plan a shoot budget in minutes. All prices include VAT.
