Film & Location

A production-ready Shoreditch location for film shoots, commercial photography and content production.

Finding the right location is half the production — and for many of London's best shoots, it starts here.

The right location changes what you can make. UNLOCKED Shoreditch is a production-ready film and location hire venue in the heart of East London — 24,500 sq ft of open, industrial space available for TV and film shoots, commercial photography, music videos and content production, with the infrastructure to support it from day one.

Raw architecture, exposed brick, high ceilings and large open volumes give productions a distinctive East London aesthetic that works across commercial, editorial and narrative formats without heavy set dressing.

❋ Industrial Character

Ample power supply, loading bay access, flexible lighting points and generous ceiling heights mean production teams can move in, set up and shoot efficiently — without the compromises that come with spaces not built for it.

❋ Production-Ready Infrastructure

Six independent studios can be used individually or in combination, giving productions the ability to run multiple setups, separate unit bases, or entirely different set environments within the same Shoreditch location.

❋ Multi-Studio Flexibility

The venue is available for single-day shoots, multi-day productions and longer-term location hire — with dedicated support from an on-site team familiar with the demands of professional production schedules.

❋ Available for Full Production Days
