It’s unsurprising that the film industry has changed dramatically since the COVID-19 crisis in terms of a more streamlined approach, and despite this and the cost of living crisis, the demand for entertainment has never been higher. Film locations for rent in the UK are in demand, but why are companies on the look out for a more industrial style of film location?

Warehouse film locations have a unique set of advantages that can help to keep production on schedule as well as provide a convenient location. They are hugely adaptable to a wide range of genres and scripts, they can be shaped to become anything from vintage homes to busy streets, or even just used as is, for a gritty industrial feel.

Another reason for the demand for industrial-looking film locations for rent in addition to their adaptability is that warehouse-feel film locations often offer wide open spaces that can easily be converted for music videos, adverts, feature films, smaller indie films, or tv shows.

Unlike outside locations, you can control the climate, which not only helps keep you on schedule by avoiding adverse weather conditions and bad lighting, but it is also more comfortable for actors and crew.

Hiring empty warehouses for this purpose has its challenges. It’s not always clear what kind of access you’ll have to power, internet and clean facilities. Hiring a film studio with the same feel is a more convenient way to stay on schedule and on task.
