What to Know
To reserve a time/space, go to the Booking page, select the service you want to book, and provide basic information about what you want to create. We'll review your request and reply to confirm the appointment date and details, and include any guidelines for your session. Please note in order to reserve an edit station you will need to book atleast 12 hours in advance and atleast 48 hours in advance to record audio/video in our space. Bookings are on a 1st come first served basis.
The first time you use our studios, we will need you to sign some forms when you arrive at the station. You can download the forms on our Policies page if you'd like to review them first.
