Ambient noise description

Our studios were designed for still photography and are not “sound stages”. While other crews have certainly done it successfully in the past, we make no guarantees as to the suitability of our studios for rolling sound. We highly recommend visiting the studio to “listen to the room” or even record a test before booking.

Integrated P. booked a video shoot for 10 people

Producer

Yes, I would book again.

CAPITOL Art Studio is a gorgeous space - and looks a bit bigger in person than in photos. We had tons of space for our talent, clients, and the equipment we brought in. There are two spaces available for rent - we used the space with the large cyc wall to shoot video. Ken is a fantastic host! We booked this space last minute from across the country, and Ken put in the time to make sure our entire team felt comfortable before signing on. He made himself available multiple times before booking-- to help answer our questions, and walk us through the necessary insurance requirements. On-set, Ken gave us space but made sure we knew he was working in the office. He was also super helpful in facilitating lighting rentals. While this studio is not a soundstage, we lucked out and captured a few beautifully lit interviews-- it was a quiet night, and we only had to pause shooting once or twice for a passing emergency vehicle. We would absolutely book here again.

Creative Project Manager

Yes, I would book again.

Ken and his team at Capitol Art are such gracious and helpful folks. Any questions we had were answered in what felt like seconds and anything we needed was procured like actual magic. We've now booked this space twice and we look forward to many photoshoots to come in this beautiful, well-structured and stocked space.
