About this location
Tungsten Studios is one of the more comprehensively equipped independent production spaces in West Yorkshire. Drive-in access means kit, set pieces, and heavy equipment arrive on location rather than being carried up stairs. The food-prep kitchen makes it viable for food production work without transporting infrastructure. Customisable set configurations — flooring, walls, furniture combinations — give productions creative flexibility without paying for a larger neutral studio and dressing it from scratch. Cinema-grade cameras and a wide range of lighting equipment available in-house reduce the dependency on external hire companies, which matters for tight shoot schedules. At £600/day this packages up more infrastructure than most studios at the same price point. The Armley location sits west of Leeds city centre with straightforward motorway access.
