BLACK HANGAR STUDIOS is fast becoming one of the major Studios in the UK.
Home to one of the largest stages in the UK (32,000 sq ft uninterrupted floor space) and the largest permanent green screen cyclorama in the UK (100ft in length and 24ft in height).
Replicating the Golden years of Hollywood when Studios had their own production crews and creative talent that moved from one production to another, creating a finely tuned and experienced in-house team to deliver the highest production value possible. The studio facilities include well-appointed office space, edit suites for picture and sound, colour grading, cyclorama and full picture deliverables, including a 35mm laboratory by CPC London.
During the last two years, the BHS team have produced and co-produced numerous productions of varying scale and budget. From own productions to studio hire, BHS has accommodated large residencies, including Star Wars: Rogue One (which filled our entire site), to short stay commercials and music videos.

Behind the scenes...
For National Geographic documentary Miracle Landing On The Hudson - we created the biggest exterior green screen in the world, the biggest ever outdoor water tank, and we used the UK's biggest crane to lift a fully dressed 737 plane into the temporary tank - and then flash filled the tank with 8m litres of water, to allow chronological shooting to match the action. To complete the look we delivered some 200 VFX shots.
Breaking the Bank - aside from stage/offices/workshop hire -- we were responsible for: product placement, carpool, set build, VFX (300+ shots), digital lab, conform, offline & online suites, music supervision, music re-records and picture delivery (including 35mm and DCP).
Born To Be Blue – a UK / Canada co-production feature with Ethan Hawke as Chet Baker. Black Hangar Studios handled all the post-production; online and offline edit, VFX (some 100 shots), beautification, ageing (young Chet, old Chet), conform, colour grade, music re-records and full picture delivery including 35mm prints.
