Does Northside Studios work with indie filmmakers?

Yes. Independent filmmakers are who Northside Studios is built for. Our pricing is intentionally accessible so more of a small budget ends up on screen.

Is the warehouse a soundstage?

No. Northside Studios is a production warehouse, not a certified soundstage, and it is not soundproof. It is a large, controllable interior space suited to custom set builds and productions that manage their own sound.
