Through the breezeway lies the newly refurbished Parish Hall, an attractive banquet room with high ceilings. Earth-toned walls bring out the room’s Mission-style flavor and complement a large stained-glass window (similar to the Sanctuary panels). The hardwood floor is great for dancing, and a proscenium stage puts the entertainment on display. Recent upgrades include an audiovisual system, and behind the scenes your caterer cooks up a feast in a professional kitchen.

Finding Loyal Studios was a blessing. We began production in a house and planned to do the rest of the filming at various locations. Rather than drive all over creation for various shots we looked online to see if there was a green screen studio available to film many scenes including a scene that takes place in Egypt. We came across many green screen rentals which weren't studios. They were rooms with a green felt on the wall or a larger rooms with a green paint on the wall. When we found Loyal studios online and saw the size of the studio, green screen and the amenities we booked use of the studio immediately. After booking, I asked Bob if we could stop by and view the studio so we could arrange for film day and he was very kind and accommodating. All of the actors and crew were very pleased and comfortable because there is a full makeup room, waiting or resting area, diner that we used in a scene, a functional kitchen and more. She Was Worth It All, is the title of my book and life story that we filmed. I've written several other books due out soon and when it comes time to turn those stories into films I know I will be contacting Loyal Studios again. What I was able to do in twelve hours at Loyal studios would have taken me weeks to do with various locations. Bob, I really am thankful and glad that you created such a wonderful place and atmosphere for creators to actually create without the stress of running all over town, city to city, state to state or flying internationally. Two thumbs up to you Bob and your staff.
