Find professional interview filming locations in Manchester
Interviews are an important part of documentaries and other films. The person being interviewed is set up in a quiet, distraction-free space where they can share their thoughts for an attentive audience. An interview space can be a storytelling location, such as the studio of an artist or the kitchen of a famous chef. Or it can be a location that's tailored to the needs of filmmakers, like a video studio.
Manchester is a major creative hub for the region and offers hundreds of suitable spaces for an interview film. They can be reserved by the hour and include amenities like light stands, extra video cameras, free parking, and much more. What sort of interview are you looking to record?
Find natural light interview spaces in Manchester
Natural light adds a relaxed, relatable atmosphere to the interview space that a studio sometimes lacks. Even if you're not relying on natural light for illumination, a nearby window adds to the scene in a distinct manner. Natural light interview spaces in Manchester include offices, video studios, conference rooms, and meeting rooms with a window or skylight. We recommend scouting out the venue beforehand because a window is also a potential source of noise pollution. Nearby traffic or conversations can interfere with the audio recording of your film.
Quiet interview filming locations in Manchester
As important as the amenities are for an interview film, the acoustic environment also matters. To screen out distractions, consider booking a soundproof space, like that of a professional film shoot location. Manchester film studios have quiet spaces where you can set up your subject in front of a green or white screen. You'll have total control of everything from lighting to acoustics in a film production studio. Many of the best places to film an interview in Manchester also come with loading bays for equipment, lounges for staff to relax in, kitchens, wireless internet, equipment rentals like specialty camera lenses, and free parking. Parking gets more important the closer your interview filming location is to downtown Manchester.
Alternatively, you can reserve a room inside of a library, coworking space, office, or other venue. Many of the rooms offer soundproofing or are set deep inside of the building where exterior sounds can't penetrate. You won't have filmmaking amenities on par with a professional studio. But if you own all of your equipment, that is less important.
