Yes, but prior to notifying us first as the studio has very sensitive fire alarms, as we need to make sure it does not set off during your production. The Fire and Rescue NSW (FRNSW) false alarm charges are high and will be forwarded to the renter. Liquids are ok provided there is sufficient cleanup at the end of the rental and no damage to the floors.

Unfortunately we don't have a dedicated green screen space. But you are able to bring your own green paper rolls or material for setup. We would be happy to provide you with our free backdrop stand.

Unfortunately due to the location of our shared complex, the studio is not soundproof. But there are times out of business hours that the space is very quiet. Please enquire with us for more info.
