Since 2007 Galleon Studios have provided fantastic filming facilities for marketers, broadcasters and independents. Offering two amazing Manchester studio hire spaces dedicated to filming, offering free lighting, wi-fi, parking, electricity, make-up room, dressing room, lounge, kitchen and shower facilities. We're a specialist green screen facility and have a large infinity cove ideal for product filming, commercials, VR, AR, web videos, music videos and productions large and small. We also have a soundproof studio ideal for sets, pieces-to-camera and interviews. We're regularly used by BBC, ITV, Channel and Sky for various factual and entertainment programs. What makes us different is the breadth of skills and equipment we have all under one roof.
We're happy to offer lighting included in any studio hire regardless of whether you choose our infinity cove or the soundproof studio. What's more, you can add on a lighting gaffer if your shoot needs specialist lighting. We also have a range of kit; not just the obvious camera and mics but more specialist, fun stuff like motion control rigs for easily repeatable shots, autocue so you're talent is never lost for words, a live keyer to see your keyed footage as you shoot. We offer a 10 hour day as standard and we also have free wi-fi, free parking and include electricity at no extra cost. The studio has a comfortable lounge and a garden for your downtime, it also has a make-up room and dressing room for actors and talent to get ready. We also have a kitchen which means you can prepare food or store lunch in our fridge. Speaking of food and drink we have free sweets, biscuits, teas, coffees and soft drinks for all our hirers. We also have various catering packages available.
In our Manchester hire studios, we've covered every eventuality even offering a first aider with every hire (in case the worst happens). We're also happy to offer crew so if you have a gap in your project or a no-show we can offer a full team or just a specialist cameraman, autocue, operator, visual effects person or sound man.There's probably a million ways we can help so get in touch with us and book your next studio experience with Galleon Studios.

The Infinity Cove is an unrivalled blank canvas with which to film your production. The space is generally green for special effect work and the walls curved to allow any object or person on it to be seen as "floating".
The studio is provided with full lighting and we also offer free wi-fi, parking, refreshments and a generous 10 hour day. The cove is supplied pre-lit so you can come in and film immediately. For more specialist lighting we can offer a lighting technician to help get the look you're after.
We also supply kit such as a live green screen keyer that allows you to preview your final key as you shoot as well as other useful things like green screen morph suits, treadmills and turntables .
The infinity cove can be painted any colour you wish.

    From the initial contact and array of questions I needed to throw at Kris and Les ahead of the shoot right through to the shoot days, Kris and Les were so thorough and helpful which was a huge, huge piece of mind. Even advising on a great caterer! On the shoot days, we couldn't have asked for more support, expertise and knowledge. Galleon made the whole process so easy and professional, I will not look anywhere else! For reference, I utilised the smaller green screen studio for the adding in of digital backdrops, dressing areas for the actors, autocue and operator, single camera and operator and even ended up using some of Galleon's props and make-up (thank you!!). Thank you, Team Galleon! *bows down in awe and thanks* "I'll be back"

    We used Galleon Studios for the first time last week and it was just brilliant. Kris & Les could not have been more helpful or professional and the whole experience was perfect from start to finish. They're also both very entertaining and bring a lot of fun to the process. We will definitely be back and I would recommend Galleon to anyone looking for a studio.

    Galleon Studios was an amazing place to be; Kris and Les, the owners, are truly exceptional individuals – knowledgeable, humorous, and, most importantly, highly professional. I highly recommend that both production teams and clients explore these hidden gems to have an extraordinary experience.

    Just absolutely fantastic. Have filmed here over 3 days with more now getting booked in. Les and Kris are super professional, accommodating, and great to have around clients. They bring a lot of laughter and fun to a shoot. We were treated like royalty, and they are more than happy to help with any requests. Nothing is too big or too small for them. Highly recommend! Looking forward to coming back.
