Alex A.
Secret Santa Monica Loft, Just off Lincoln
to work with and kind. They quickly accommodated us when we asked to adjust our start time & even checked in when we had a filming hiccup during our shoot (our fault). The location is under construction and ended up being exactly the industrial look we needed. 10/10...

Looks great, just...

Santa Monica Photo/Video Studio
Our team filmed a corporate video in the studio and this space fit the aesthetic we were looking for perfectly. The host was also easy to work with. The only thing I'd be weary of for others shooting video is that there will be some noise interruptions from the...
