PODCAST STUDIOS

Each booking includes a soundproofed, styled studio with plush seating, RØDECaster Pro deck, 4x Rode PodMics, 2 x camera angles on Sony ILME FX30 cameras, adjustable GODOX lighting, air con, and full privacy.
Q: Can I self-record or do you come in to help record it all?
A: Our studios are 100% self-record friendly. Record independently with ease, or if you need us in there to hit go on all the buttons and get you settled we can do that too.
Q: Is editing included in the podcast booking?
A: Editing is not included. We provide your raw files for you to edit as you please or pass to your podcast team. If you're in need of editors, we’re happy to recommend freelancers.
Q: Do you provide the raw file or can I bring my own SD cards in to take immediately?
A: BOTH are allowed & encouraged. We will always have all our SD cards for the cameras & audio in the studio, which we then take and upload to a Google Drive within 24 hours. If you prefer to just bring your SD cards for the rodecaster & the cameras, knock yourself out, the benefit of that is you can walk out of there and get it edited & published without waiting for us to upload it to Google drive.
Q: How early can I arrive to set up?
A: Your booking time includes your bump-in and bump-out period, so please arrive and exit within that window. We recommend arriving 5–10 minutes early to get comfy.
We have had bad experiences ourselves with podcast & shoot studios being combined so committed to always ensuring if podcast studios are booked, they’re all that will be happening in Studio 3.With that though, we know we are going to be a very booked & busy studio, so you need to ensure you are organised with yourself & your guest(s) for your recording slot.
BOARDROOM (COACHING & CORPORATE SPACE)
Q: Who is the boardroom for?
A: Our boardroom is an application-only space for high-calibre coaches, corporate professionals and founders ready to elevate their work. Think: client intensives, team strategy days, VIP client days, or premium content shoots.
Q: What does the boardroom booking include?
A: Access to our 3.8m custom microcement table, luxe lounge area, private arched nook, and bonus access to the entire shoot space (2hrs with half-day bookings, 4hrs with full-day bookings).
If you have booked the boardroom, we shut the whole studio down for the 4 hours or 8 hours. So you get exclusive access to the entire space.
