A moody, ready-to-roll podcast studio in a full-service venue at 518 W 27th St. Walk in, sit down, hit record. We handle the setup, the cameras, the sound, the pack-down, and editing (if you require) so you leave with broadcast-ready files the same day.
PRICE:
$195/hour (2-hour minimum)
CHOOSE YOUR SCENE:
Two scenes, one studio. Every booking gives you both looks and you pick what fits your show.
- Orange Scene: warm wood panelling and a rust velvet lounge, soft and inviting.
- Grey Scene: board-formed concrete, moody and industrial, deep shadows with a clean modern edge.
Shoot in one, or use both. If you want both in a single session, book Extended Setup Time so we can allow for the relight and camera reset between rooms.
