No unannounced visits for immediate bookings can be considered. Please make your advance bookings with WFG Technical Manager Dylan Baillie via email at dylan@winnipegfilmgroup.com – ALL Studio rentals must employ Physical Distancing and all Provincial Health Guidelines with respect to Film Production as dictated on the Province of Manitoba website HERE.
Just upstairs from from our Cinematheque, this black box production studio is available for rental for film production and production-related activites (auditions, rehearsals, meetings, etc.).
Our studio also has a 23ft 10in x 11ft 4in blue screen for filming special effects. Production equipment is also available for rent.
We also make this space available for rent for screenings, artist talks and presentations.
