Tips for Booking Your Corporate Video Location
Securing the right location for your corporate video shoot can make all the difference. Drawing from our extensive experience across London’s top venues, here are some expert tips to ensure your shoot runs smoothly:
- Visit the Location Before Booking
Always schedule a site visit (recce) to evaluate the space’s suitability for your specific needs. During our visit to JJ Studios, we confirmed the acoustics were ideal for interviews and identified optimal areas for equipment setup, saving critical time on shoot day. - Understand the Full Cost
Clarify pricing upfront, including VAT, deposits, and overtime charges. For instance, Loft Studios charges £190/hour for overtime, which can quickly add up if your schedule overruns. Factor these costs into your budget to avoid surprises. - Maximize On-Site Amenities
Studios like Loft and JJ offer equipment rentals, reducing the need for third-party logistics. During our shoot at Loft Studios for SQLI and Tesco Mobile, the availability of professional-grade Aputure lights and stands on-site streamlined our setup. - Plan for Crew Comfort
Arrange for catering if available—Spratts Factory, for instance, offers tea and coffee trays that kept our team energised during long filming days. Whilst at JJ Studios we had a full blown caterer come in that was affiliated with the studio (only cost £35 a head for the day). - Check for Accessibility and Parking
Some venues, like De Hav Studios, are on secluded streets with limited noise distractions but may require pre-planned parking arrangements. Loft Studios provides paid parking spaces, which we secured in advance to ensure smooth access. - Coordinate with the Venue Staff
Clear communication with venue staff is essential. At JJ Studios, we worked closely with the team to align our recce schedule with their clients’ breaks, ensuring no disruptions. - Be Prepared for Contingencies
Always pencil in backup options or additional spaces. When booking at Loft Studios, we reserved both Studio 4 and the floor below as a contingency, which proved useful when additional shooting space was required.
