You tell Hal, our design assistant, what you want made. A priced brief fills in on the left as you answer, and the centre draws an approximate scale drawing of your set beside a 1.80 m person. You can change your answers and see the budget move as you go. No 3D model is made on this page.
No. It is an indicative band, shown excluding VAT, so you can judge whether the project is in the right place before you commit anything. Final cost depends on size, finish, quantity, delivery and installation. The studio checks the figure and confirms it within two days.
Type in the budget you have. The tool proposes the smallest changes to scope that bring the project to it, and applies them to what you see on screen. You get a lower specification for your money, not the same thing for less.
Yes. We do not match prices, but we will go through a written quote line by line against our scope so you can see what each includes. If you need to pay less, we offer a version at your figure with a clearly stated scope.
You can save the project to an account, book a call, forward it to a colleague or download the pack. If you go ahead, drawings come first and you approve them in writing before anything is made.
Sets for photography and film, scenic builds and backdrops, from a single wall and floor to a full environment.
Partly. The page draws an approximate scale drawing of the set beside a 1.80 m person, so you can judge proportions. Full drawings follow and you approve them before building starts.
Yes. Hero props and dressing can be made to match the set, so the whole scene comes from one place.
Tell Hal the date and we will say plainly whether it is realistic. Dates are never padded to cover an internal wait.
Yes. Describe it, give references, and the drawings develop from them. You approve the drawings before building starts.
We can install on site and the brief includes installation as a line, so the budget covers the full job.
Film and television sets, photographic sets, window and in-store sets, event and stage sets, and permanent scenic sets. Scenic builds, backdrops and full sets are all part of the room.
Yes. Hal asks whether it will be seen by people, photographed, filmed or both, how many sides the camera will see, and how closely it will be looked at, from a distance to a close-up on screen. A wall that never appears on camera does not need the finish of one that does, so you are not paying for what no one sees.
You describe the set to Hal and a priced brief builds beside it. Drawings follow and you approve them in writing. The set is made at the factory, finished and packed, then built, fitted and dressed on site to the shooting schedule, and cleared away when the shoot is over.
In a studio, on a stage or in a hall, in a shop or window, outdoors, or on location. Tell Hal where, and whether the venue has rules, because access and fixings differ in each.
From under ten square metres to more than a hundred and fifty, and from one set to five or more. Hal asks both so the brief reflects the real job.
It can be kept, reused or struck and removed. Say which, because a set that has to be reused is built to be taken apart and put back together.
Set building is the structure and the scenery, the walls, floors, backdrops and fixtures. Set dressing is the objects on it that make the scene feel lived in. Hero props and dressing can be made to match the set, so the scene looks like one place.
Yes. Choose no effects, lighting, moving parts, or lights and effects together. Where something moves by itself, Motion Room makes the mechanism.
Days to weeks for a simple photographic set, and longer for a full set with scenic paint and effects. Shoot dates do not move, so tell Hal yours and we say plainly whether it is realistic.
Drawings or plans, concept art, a script or a brief all help. With nothing yet, describe the scene and the camera and start from there.
