Your search for a studio ends today.

Franklin Studios is owned and operated by five partners deeply rooted in the commercial production industry: Antony Packer, Kevin Parker, Marcus Fung, Jeremy Drummond, and Josh Alkoff.

Upon confirmation of your booking, you will receive a comprehensive information email containing all necessary details. Additionally, you'll be provided with a unique access code granting entry through the rear entrance of the studio. Please note, our standard access point is through the rear, via the back-alley entrance and loading bay. Should you require access through the front entrance, kindly inform us in advance, and we will endeavor to accommodate your request.

If you need to cancel your booking between 7 and 30 days before your scheduled time, we can refund 50% of your fee. However, refunds aren't possible within a week of your booking due to high demand. Rescheduling within 7 days incurs a $300 re-booking fee. Thank you for understanding.

To finalize your booking, please visit our book now page, select your desired date and package, and fill out your payment information. Our team will promptly approve your booking. Alternatively, for custom bookings or if you prefer to book via email or phone, feel free to contact us anytime.

Each guest leave up to two full garbage bags of waste, as well as recycling bins. Additional bags incurs a $30 removal fee. You can leave your bags at the rear gate or request access to the outside garbage container if you do not wish to pay the removal fee.

For bookings with specific times, requests, or add-ons, please email us at hello@franklinstudios.ca, and we'll handle your booking personally.

Depending on your project, we may have technicians available to assist you. Explore our partner network for suitable additions to your project. For full-scale production teams, please reach out to our production company at www.workshopfilmcompany.com.

Event hosting is considered on a case-by-case basis, ensuring the space is treated with respect and responsibility. We require detailed information regarding the event, including the number of guests, purpose, and alcohol consumption. Selling drinks requires a liquor license, which we can assist in securing for an additional fee.

Every booking includes full access to our extensive grip package, detailed in our inventory linked HERE. Additionally, you'll have access to our lighting grid, ladders, props, furniture, and kitchenette. For those requiring additional camera, lighting, or podcast gear, these can be rented as add-ons. Refer to our gear menu HERE for more details.

Before booking with us at Franklin, please review and sign our waiver form. This ensures you're educated about our policies and recommendations regarding the space, equipment usage and liability.

Understanding that every project is unique, we strive to accommodate varying budgets on a case-by-case basis. Particularly for first-time renters, we are flexible with our fees.

Your booking includes two reserved parking stalls located at the rear entrance of the building, marked with 1885 Franklin Street signage. Larger vehicles can unload and park in one of the two loading bay stalls. Additional parking options are available upon request.

Operating the lighting grid and podcast equipment is straightforward, but we recommend familiarizing yourself with them beforehand. Instructional videos are available in the studio and online.
