Discover incredible interview filming locations in New York City

Interviews are often one of the most crucial components of any documentary production or video podcast. Whether it’s a feature-length doc or a short profile, an interview can be key to telling your story and bringing a project to life. Filming an interview is a great way to capture the essence of a person and share their story in an impactful way. When selecting an interview filming location, keep in mind factors like accessibility, privacy, and security. You'll also want to consider the energy of the space and how it relates to the interview subject and the story you're trying to tell. Additionally, account for any potential logistical issues like sound and lighting. Once you have chosen the perfect video recording space in NYC, the rest of the interview should come together easily.

How to set up your video production space in NYC for success

First, think about the type of atmosphere you want to create. If you want a formal and professional environment, then be mindful of places with too much background noise or activity, such as a restaurant or an outdoor venue. Also, take into consideration the logistics of the space. Questions to ask yourself: Is there enough room for both the interviewer and interview subject to comfortably sit or stand? How is the lighting? Is the sound quality decent? Finally, consider what will make your interview subjects most comfortable. If they're already familiar with the space, such as their own house or a familiar spot, that can help put them at ease. Reassure them that they can take breaks if they need any. Overall, it’s best to choose a quiet location with minimal distractions. And make sure the lighting is good and there's no glare on the camera lens. If you're using a microphone, test it beforehand to make sure it's working properly.

Find and book the perfect studio space to film in NYC

Providing a variety of backdrops and setups for production crews, studios make for ideal interview filming locations. They are a versatile and flexible venue choice for virtually any video project, typically allowing access to professional lighting and audio equipment, which can help to ensure a high-quality interview. And your post-production team may find it easier to edit the footage later on, especially since there will likely be less background noise to filter out. Plus, a studio space lets you create a specific setting or atmosphere that can produce a noticeable difference in the final cut.

Reviews for interview filming locations

Spacious Modern Manhattan Studio
We used this space for a filmed interview shoot, and it went well! Not too noisy, and the window wasn't an issue with lighting. The hallways were fairly narrow to get all the film equipment through, but the freight elevator was very helpful. Thanks...

Internal kitchen and bathroom. The owners were very responsive. The only caveat is - if you're looking to use this space to film an interview, I'd advise against it. It's very noisy - constant sirens going past 34th street + there's an art school on the floor above and...
