Video marketing continues to show no signs of slowing down, with more than nine out of 10 people report wanting to see more videos from brands in 2023 and TikTok the most downloaded app for two years in a row in 2022 and 2021.

The increase in marketing spend and push on video marketing is driving huge demand for production space in the UK nationwide, and not just in London.

Production space UK

Production space doesn’t necessarily mean a big London studio full of blinding lights and overpaid actors.  A lot of SMEs still need affordable studio rental without the Hollywood bells and whistles, but with enough space and natural light, and the facilities needed to make quality content.

Film studio rental is available throughout the UK, and finding a location close to London but without the capital price tag, such as in Surrey or Kent, means you get the best of both worlds.

Facilities needed for quality UK film studios

If you’re looking for a film studio space for video marketing then even if you don’t need movie star treatment, in addition to the right light and space you will still need a number of key facilities.  These include:

    • Basic toilet facilities for the comfort of your team, as well as in order to minimise the risks from COVID-19 while they last.
    • Access and parking.  This is a key issue when looking at film studios in London due to congestion charges, traffic, and expensive parking.  Slightly outside London, you will find better access by motorway and often free parking.
    • Shared or communal space outside the filming area. There will be breaks in filming, but there will often be the need for people to interact while filming is going on, which makes communal space helpful to maximise time and minimise disruptions.
    • Access to equipment rental. Often you won’t need all of the equipment yourself, and having reliable connections to people that are able to rent you anything you don’t currently own is a good way to save money and time.
