NYC-Styled Loft with Views of Belfast

About the Space

One of the largest independent studio rental spaces in Belfast, offering a long, open layout measuring approximately 65ft by 20ft. The studio is designed to comfortably accommodate full crews, talent, lighting, and equipment without the constraints often found in smaller rental spaces. This makes it particularly well suited to professional photography productions and controlled, small-scale video shoots where space, flexibility, and working distance matter. The studio features seven large 4x6ft south-west facing windows that provide generous, consistent daylight throughout the day. The natural light is clean and directional, working especially well for lifestyle, portrait, fashion, and product photography. Light levels can be easily shaped using flags, diffusion, or reflectors, allowing a wide range of looks without heavy rigging. When full lighting control is required, blackout curtains allow the studio to be completely darkened. This makes the space suitable for flash, continuous lighting, or mixed-light setups. Switching between daylight and blackout is quick and straightforward, allowing productions to move efficiently between setups without losing time or relocating. Ceiling height is generous, providing ample clearance for stands, modifiers, overhead rigs, and safe working distances for lighting. The height allows for clean top-light, soft overhead sources, and controlled falloff, which is particularly valuable for commercial stills and interview-based video work. The long footprint of the studio supports efficient workflow. Camera, subject, and background can be separated properly, enabling wider compositions, layered lighting setups, and multiple working zones within the same shoot. This layout reduces congestion and allows different departments to work simultaneously without interference. Access to the studio is straightforward for crew and equipment load-in, supporting a smooth start to the day and efficient wrap. The space is laid out to minimise bottlenecks and unnecessary movement, helping productions stay focused and on schedule. Power is suitable for professional lighting and production equipment, with practical distribution throughout the space. This supports a wide range of stills and small video requirements without the need for temporary solutions. Sound considerations are suitable for controlled video shoots, interviews, and small crew productions. While not a dedicated sound stage, the environment supports clean audio capture when managed appropriately and is commonly used for interview-style and branded content filming. The studio is regularly used by experienced photographers, producers, and crews who value a calm, organised working environment. The space supports professional standards, clear communication, and efficient collaboration, helping productions run smoothly from setup through delivery. This studio is best suited to teams looking for a spacious, flexible environment with strong natural light, full blackout capability, and a layout designed around real-world production needs rather than minimal footprint.
