How it works

01

Choose the level of support.

Book the room on its own or as part of a full Digital Spark production. Either way we start with scope, schedule, crew, gear and space.

02

Plan the production.

On full productions we build the concept, shot list, set design, lighting approach, talent plan and schedule with your team.

03

Prepare the space.

Cyc, grid, viewing area, equipment and load-in are set before your call time, so the day starts shooting.

04

Shoot.

Bring your own crew, or we assemble and run the right team. Our leadership stays on set for every Digital Spark production.

05

Post and delivery.

On full productions the same team takes it through editing, color, sound, animation, retouching and every version you need.

Made here

The Sleepme Chilipad 2.0 launch was produced in this studio. Motion, photography and animation came out of one plan, with the controlled space letting us manage lighting, talent, product detail and several setups while keeping every deliverable in the same visual language.

Why it works

The studio is run by a working production company. Digital Spark has produced motion, stills and animation out of Charlotte since 2014, still run by the people who started it, and this is where much of that work gets made.

So it is set up around what a real shoot day needs: fast load-in, dependable lighting, room for clients and crew, and experienced people a door away when you need them.

More than four walls and a white cyc. A controlled place to make ambitious work well.

Common questions

Can we rent the studio without a Digital Spark crew?

Yes. Agencies, production companies, photographers and independent crews rent the studio and bring their own team. We confirm the schedule, equipment, load-in and any studio support you need before the booking.

Can Digital Spark run the whole production?

Yes, from creative development through final delivery. Depending on the project that covers concept, scripting, shot planning, casting, crew, equipment, set design, the shoot itself and post-production, across video, photography and animation.

What equipment is included?

The white cyc, the 15' lighting grid, three Aputure P600c RGB fixtures and iPad-controlled RGB lighting. Camera packages, extra lighting and grip are arranged per production, and we confirm what is included and what is an additional rental during planning.

Can we shoot photo and video on the same day?

Yes. The space is built for both, and producing them together under one plan is often the most efficient way to get a full set of campaign assets with one consistent look.

Can clients watch the shoot?

Yes. The lounge and video village let stakeholders follow the monitors without crowding the set, and remote viewing can be set up for anyone who cannot attend in person.

Can you build a custom set?

Yes, depending on size, design and schedule. We can help plan the build, source materials and specialists, and restore the studio afterwards.

Where is the studio?

9525 Monroe Road, Suite 150, Charlotte, NC 28270. Ground-level access, on-site parking and easy access to the rest of Charlotte.

Book the cyc.

Send us your dates, what you're shooting, and whether you're bringing a crew. We'll confirm availability and anything you need on top of the room.
