Scotland's Film and Television Studio and Buildspace SCOTLAND’S FILM AND TELEVISION STUDIO AND BUILDSPACE OVER 10K SQ FT JULY 2020 Welcome In addition to the free locations finding and research service provided to those wanting to film in Scotland, the Screen Commission Team at Screen Scotland recognise that filmmakers need good quality studio and set building spaces, and have compiled this list of studios, empty warehouses and potential buildspace. The list will provide a full and detailed record of industrial space available in Scotland, and will also show which productions have used the space previously. As this is a working document, the list is subject to change and inclusion in this list does not guarantee that a space will be available. The Screen Commission Team at Screen Scotland has compiled the list: it is up to the production to deal with owners directly, arrange for the use of the space and complete all the necessary paperwork. Creative Scotland cannot be held responsible for the state of the buildings. Please be aware that some spaces may require cleaning or additional blackout/soundproofing. We are happy to amend any details if they are incorrect. www.screen.scot | @screenscots [email protected] July 2020 Contents BBC Studios – Dumbarton 4 BBC Studios – Pacific Quay 6 Buchanan Business Park – Glasgow 8 First Stage Studios – Edinburgh 10 Parkhouse Business Park – Glasgow 12 Pyramids Business Park – Bathgate 14 The Shed – Glasgow 16 Wardpark Studios – Cumbernauld 18 Westway – Renfrew Glasgow 20 3 BBC Scotland Dumbarton Studios Name of site BBC Scotland – Dumbarton Owner/company BBC Scotland Contact name BBC Scotland Planning Team Full address BBC Scotland, Dumbarton Studios, Exit A82 at Lomond Gate roundabout, Dumbarton G82 2AP Telephone 0141 422 6500 Email [email protected] Website www.bbcstreet.co.uk Previous use Shetland, River City, Two Doors Down and Rillington Place Dimensions of space The facility currently offers studio space of 18,000 sq ft, – height/width build/construction space and a full size back-lot Soundproofing The studios are acoustically treated to reduce noise pollution and have a 3-phase power supply Blackout Yes Access details Dumbarton Studios is located within 30 mins of central Glasgow, 20 mins from Glasgow Airport and 10 mins from Loch Lomond and the Gateway to the Highlands Parking Ample Additional features Canteen, offices, security, workshops.

  • CWG White Paper AJR 230215A X Compressed
    Research & Development White Paper WHP 289 March 2015 Covering the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games using IP Studio Alexander Rawcliffe BRITISH BROADCASTING CORPORATION White Paper WHP 289 Covering the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games using IP Studio Alexander Rawcliffe Abstract BBC Research & Development’s IP Studio project is investigating the use of an IP-based infrastructure for live broadcasting, using a combination of theoretical design and experimental prototyping. During the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games, IP Studio technology was used to produce a live ‘IP-end-to-end’ outside broadcast. Using network connectivity provided by Virgin Media, JANET and the BBC, live ultra-high definition video was captured from cameras in several competition venues, and delivered into a software-defined production system. Ancillary production facilities such as talkback and camera tally indicators were also implemented using the same IP network. This facilitated a highly distributed production workflow, with operational tasks being undertaken at several sites throughout the UK. Final programme output was delivered over IP using MPEG-DASH, and also broadcast from selected existing digital terrestrial television (DTT) transmitter locations using HEVC compression over DVB-T2. This paper describes the components and configuration of the IP Studio system used during the games, and explores the geographically distributed, collaborative workflows it enabled. Additional key words: Internet Protocol, Stagebox, RTP, Future Broadcast System, IP-end-to-end White Papers are distributed freely on request.
