Less stress, more production

As filmmakers, we know that time is money. At 3200 square feet, Kelowna Film Studios is loaded with features to increase productivity and flow, so you can get your shoot done faster and more efficiently.

"Kelowna Film Studios exceeded our expectations for our shoot. The studio was professional and spacious, and the kitchen was comfortable and well-equipped. The hair and makeup room was a bonus, and the bathrooms were clean and well-stocked. We had a great experience and highly recommend Kelowna Film Studios."

Full Kitchen

Ideal for long working days or social gatherings, the full kitchen offers creature comforts and practical convenience for your cast and crew. We provide cutlery, dishes, cutting boards and knives, water and wine glasses, coffee cups, a coffee maker, kettle, sink, full size fridge, microwave, and a dishwasher for easy clean up. We also have a large, stylish island on casters for added convenience. Our goal is to make your filming experience as smooth and stress-free as possible, and the well-equipped kitchen is just one way we strive to do that.

Hair and Makeup / Green Room

The hair and makeup room has been carefully designed with 12 independent circuits, meaning you’ll have more than enough power for extensive use of hair tools and other electronics. Comfortable seating, lighted mirrors, a ceiling fan and abundant natural light make this room as practical as it is pleasant for getting camera-ready.

75” TV / Video Village

Skip the setup. With 4 HDMI, 4 SDI, and 2 XLR inputs, your video village is already ready to go (and behind the sound wall). Keep an eye on the action and keep the conversation going.

Washroom

Mezzanine

Mop Sink Closet

Back of House Features

2000 Square Foot Soundstage

Cleaner takes, fewer sound interruptions. The soundstage was created with double-wall soundproofing, air gap, steel studs, Roxul insulation, and 5/8” drywall. Donnaconna soundboard helps to further reduce sound reflection. 14’ to the lighting grid, 17’ to the trusses, 20’ to the ceiling.

3-Phase Power

Supplies high levels of consistent power, which supports heavy electrical use from lots of gear—without fluctuations affecting your lighting.

Fixed Lighting Grid

Reduce your need for extension cords and declutter your set. A professionally engineered lighting grid services the entire soundstage. At 14’ high, the grid is made from industry standard 1 ½” pipe, has an outlet at every joint (every 8’) and provides 50 amps of power.

“The Octo” Mobile Power Unit

Skip the setup. With 4 HDMI, 4 SDI and 2 XLR inputs, your video village is already ready to go (and behind the sound wall). Keep an eye on the action and keep the conversation going.

3000 Square Foot Backlot

With plenty of space for the circus, the backlot can fit multiple large trucks and even the largest trailers.

Drive-in Studio

The drive-in studio features a 14’ bay door directly into the soundstage from the backlot. Incorporate vehicles and large props into your shoot, and make hauling gear in and out faster and easier.

Additional Back of House Features

Wireless Red-Light System / HVAC Control

Avoid accidental interruptions. With red lights mounted on every door to the soundstage, everyone on site will know when the cameras are rolling. Turning on the red-light system also conveniently turns off the HVAC system for even cleaner sound. Controlled wirelessly with a pocket size remote.

Wireless Locks and Security

Entryway doors are controlled wirelessly with a passcode sent to your mobile device. All crew members will have access, and the automatically locking doors provide extra security for your set. High barbed wire fencing surrounds the complex and the gates are locked nightly.

Alleyway

The alleyway directly outside the soundstage is a convenient place for a smoke pit or for creating an exterior set with barbed wire fencing.

Free Parking

In addition to the backlot, KFS has 3 designated parking stalls directly in front of the studio. There are also 25+ free, unmetered street parking spaces.
