Large Production Studio in Yarraville, Melbourne
A production-grade podcast studio in Melbourne for everything from a nimble founder session to a larger film, television or commercial-style crew build—without losing the warmth and purpose of a real conversation set.

A production studio, not a borrowed room
The bigger the crew,
the more the room matters.
Large filming days need more than attractive furniture and a few microphones. They need a workable route for equipment, clear room around the set, a place to prepare people, options for cameras and lighting, and a studio that does not need to be reinvented before a conversation can be filmed.
Creative Creatures was designed from floor to ceiling as a dedicated video podcast studio. That makes a simple business, founder or creator recording easy to run. It also gives a production crew a credible base for a higher-specification shoot built around a real podcast scene.
The set stays a podcast set. The production can scale around it.
Designed for the practical work
What makes this a production-grade podcast studio?
The difference is not a grand claim. It is a group of real details that make a bigger filming day more practical.
02
A flexible conversation set
Movable seating, backdrop options and a liftable acoustic carpet make it possible to scope a production-specific build around a real podcast set.
03
Dolly-friendly planning
When agreed before the shoot, the carpet can be lifted to expose smoother concrete for a planned tracked camera move around the set.
04
Production-ready infrastructure
Ceiling mounting points and more than ten power outlets across ceiling and floor give a technical crew a more considered starting point for lighting and equipment.
Ground-floor access
A direct route from van to set.
The large opening doors and rear-car-park access make crew load-in simpler for professional filming. Cases, stands, props, lighting and support equipment can move from vehicle to studio at ground-floor level, which is a fundamentally different starting point to carrying a production through a lobby, lift or shared workspace.
This is useful for larger crews, but it also helps smaller productions work faster and more calmly. Access should always be planned in advance around the specific vehicle, equipment and schedule.
Recent production evidence
A recent filmed production used the studio with a crew of more than 30 people, working around the podcast set with additional cameras, lighting, a dolly and support equipment. People and production are intentionally not identified.
Set and camera flexibility
Move the camera.
Keep the conversation.
The room is flexible by design. Modular seating and backdrop options can adapt to the visual needs of a branded conversation, a professional video podcast or a film/TV/commercial-style scene that still needs to feel like a real interview.
For a planned camera move, the acoustic carpet can be lifted to reveal smoother concrete below. That gives a crew the option to build a dolly route around the set, subject to an agreed floor plan and the production’s own technical and safety requirements.

Acoustics, rigging and power
A sound-controlled room with room to build.
Acoustic carpet, acoustic treatment and wraparound wool theatre-style curtains help the studio feel visually considered while supporting a more controlled recording environment. The studio’s ceiling infrastructure provides mounting points for a planned lighting or technical build, while more than ten outlets distributed across ceiling and floor make equipment placement more deliberate.
Those details are useful foundations, not a substitute for a production’s own technical assessment. We do not describe the studio as a certified soundstage or promise total external sound isolation; projects with specialist sound, electrical, rigging or safety requirements should be scoped early.
A studio that has been put to work
Built around a podcast scene. Used by a larger crew.
The point is not to call every filming day “Hollywood”. It is to show the studio has accommodated a significant crew using its podcast set as the subject of the production.
In practical terms
30+
Crew members on a recent production.
The set remained a podcast scene while the production added cameras, lighting, a dolly, technical support and a larger working crew around it.

Production planning
Start with the crew plan, not a generic room hire.
The right production begins with a short conversation about what is actually coming through the doors. That lets us confirm the room, access and existing set are a sensible match for the filming day.

Questions, answered
Large productions studio FAQ.
Can the studio support a larger film, commercial or television-style crew?
Yes, the Yarraville studio can be scoped for a larger crew build around a filmed podcast or conversation scene. A recent production used the space with a crew of more than 30 people, alongside additional cameras, lighting, a camera dolly and support equipment. Every production has different access, safety and technical requirements, so the proposed build should be discussed before booking.
Is there ground-floor access for a production van and crew load-in?
Yes. Large opening load-in doors connect the studio to the rear car park at ground-floor level. The direct route is useful for moving equipment, cases, props and crew into the production space without relying on a lift, shared office corridor or upstairs access. Please confirm your vehicles and equipment plan before the day.
Can a camera dolly or tracked move be used in the podcast studio?
The studio’s movable set and liftable acoustic carpet can allow a production to expose smoother concrete for a planned dolly move. This is production-specific work, so camera movement, floor preparation, access and safety should be agreed ahead of time rather than assumed from a standard podcast booking.
Is the studio soundproof?
The studio is designed for sound control, with acoustic carpet, acoustic treatment and wraparound wool theatre-style curtains that help create a more controlled recording environment. We do not represent it as a certified soundstage or guarantee total external sound isolation. If your production has a specific acoustic specification, discuss it with us before booking.
What should a production crew ask before hiring the space?
Start with the crew size, set plan, load-in schedule, equipment list, camera movement, lighting, power, ceiling-mounting and safety requirements. We can then confirm whether the Yarraville studio is the right fit and how the existing podcast set can support the planned filming day.
