About the Studio.

A calm, professional space to tape and explore scenes in the heart of South East London.

Whether you’re preparing for a big audition, updating your portfolio, or simply wanting to explore a scene, our studio is designed with your craft in mind.

  • Crisp audiovisuals & clean lighting. All tapes are shot using a Sony ZV-E10 and Softbox lights.

  • A relaxed atmosphere with no distractions to drop in and connect with another actor face to face.

  • Authenticity and presence over hitting beats.

  • Conveniently based in the heart of Lewisham, we’re easy to reach from across South East London, making professional self-tapes accessible when you need them most.
