SPECIALISMS

Farm Studios' establishment in 2001 arose from a background in natural history and science documentaries which has meant a strong foundation in the trickier, technical aspects of film making. Over the years, and to this day, we regularly help with techniques such as high speed, time lapse, stop motion, CSO, virtural/unreal engine production, macro, motion control, 3D and VFX. We even have our own in-house 6-axis robotic arm for those really funky shots!

GARDEN

The fully planted garden area is a great space to sit and relax. It has a lovely lunch time sun trap and backs on to both our main studio and second studio with beautiful views over the surrounding farmland.
