About this location
Transmission Studio is on Liverpool’s the area between the commercial docks and the Pier Head that puts the studio within range of the Mersey views and Liverpool’s heritage architecture — the Liver Building, Cunard Building, and Port of Liverpool Building are nearby. The 35 sq metre floor with a truss lighting system, kitchen, green room, and prep space gives the studio the infrastructure of a scaled-up production facility rather than a basic hire room. At 20-person capacity and £350/day this is competitive for a studio with this level of built-in infrastructure. The location means exterior shots can combine a modern studio interior with one of England’s most recognised maritime heritage environments.
For productions using Liverpool as a setting, having a studio on the removes the travel time between a studio base and the key exterior areas. The Pier Head, the Albert Dock (which is separately hireable through Grosvenor), and the historic Three Graces are within a short walk. L3 postcode is at the heart of the Liverpool UNESCO World Heritage zone. The truss system means lighting rig work is more flexible than in a simple-ceiling studio — useful for interview setups, music performance filming, and any work that needs positioned overhead lights. Booking via Tagvenue at the day rate from £350.
