Actual performance space bookings

video production of a show

Thanks for having this spot available for film. I'm producing a video for my company. We will be filming a host introducing a show and 4 guests, and each guests performs a verse shortly after. The crew and set up is small, we just wanted a space that looked industrial and spacious.

music recital space

I am a private music teacher (cello/violin) looking for a recital space. I saw yours and it looks perfect for my studio size.

performance set recording

Music duo with DJ and frontman recording a performance set or two. We need the pro video recording - ideally we would like it to have a "boiler room" style vibe. We need the raw video footage but also if an edit is put together we would take that too. We want the audio recorded separately through the mixer and not a "live" mic recording."

acoustic performance music video

I'm an aspiring filmmaker working on a music video project in need of a venue to work in. It's a simple acoustic performance with a guitarist and vocalist that will have other film material overlaid. Both the film material and musical performance will be filmed in the space, as it coincides with some of the different themes we hope to achieve. The director and musician would like to rent the space for a couple of hours for initial scouting. We would like to take measurements, explore the space, and work on visualizing our project with your venue, so we can eventually rent it in the near future for the actual filming. It should just be the three of us (a possible fourth, the guitarist, might join us for a quick rehearsal).
