Photography studio hire · Greenwich, London

BEST FILM & TV PUBLICITY
PHOTOGRAPHY STUDIO HIRE
LONDON - UK

Plan cast portraits, character imagery and publicity campaigns in Greenwich, London. Bring your photographer, cast and production team for a studio day built around the release brief.

The cast, the character and the campaign.

Publicity photography works best when the images are planned for their intended use. Agree the cast list, character direction and deliverables before booking, then organise the day around talent availability, wardrobe changes and the lighting setups. Cineview provides studio hire for the production; publicity photography, retouching and distribution are not automatically included.

Cast portraits and combinations

Create a practical schedule for individual portraits, pairs and ensemble frames. Confirm names, costume continuity and approved character references so your team can keep the campaign visually consistent.

Close-up character portrait

Key-art photography

Discuss the proposed artwork layout with the photographer and designer. Plan the camera angle, eye lines, background and space around the subject, including whether elements will be photographed separately for later compositing.

Press and launch imagery

Allow for photographs with different framing and expressions alongside the main campaign image. Review the shot list against press, website and promotional uses rather than expecting one frame to serve every format.

Hair and makeup preparation for a publicity shoot

A studio day that respects talent time

Include hair and makeup, wardrobe, lighting checks and resets in the schedule. Tell us crew and cast numbers and any privacy or access arrangements you need; confirm these as part of the booking.

Photographs illustrate publicity portraits, character styling and shoot preparation. They are creative references; photography, styling and retouching are arranged separately.

Your studio hire questions.

Can we bring our own equipment?

Yes. You can bring your own equipment at no extra bringing-kit charge. Cineview also has over 400 items of equipment in house. Hiring suitable kit from the studio can save time and transport costs. Explore our equipment list and contact us with your equipment requirements to confirm availability and prices.

Are dogs and children welcome?

Yes. Dogs and children are welcome, and Cineview is a dog-friendly studio. Please contact us before bringing dogs so we can discuss the practical arrangements for your booking.

Do clients need insurance?

Client insurance is not required unless the work involves fire or water. Contact us before booking any fire or water activity to discuss the necessary cover and practical arrangements.

Do we need to send shot lists or call sheets?

No. Shot lists and call sheets are optional; you do not need to send them before shoot day. You are welcome to share them if they will help the studio team support your plans.

Can we photograph cast members separately for a composite?

Yes, this can be part of your own production plan. Your photographer and designer should agree perspective, lighting, position and framing; compositing and retouching are not included in basic studio hire.

Are hair and makeup services included?

The studio has crew facilities, but makeup artists, styling and wardrobe services are separate unless expressly agreed. Bring your own team or discuss requirements before booking.

Does hire include a photographer?

Studio hire does not automatically include a photographer, creative team or full production service. Bring your own crew or discuss specific support before booking. Any extras must be agreed in your quote.
