Convoy Studios, a full-service production stage facility, has opened for business in Culver City. The new independent venture, located adjacent to Sony Pictures Studios, was launched by a group of private investors in the entertainment industry. Doug Ryan, general manager of Convoy Studios, said the new stage and its resources were designed to “nurture and empower content creators, and to facilitate the needs of a diverse range of clients, all in one convenient and centrally located production studio.” The site is being touted as a creative space where top-level production service helps to bring concepts to life. 

Ryan expects the 5,000-square foot facility to become a much in-demand hub for photographers, directors, producers, brands, celebrities, organizations, and other artists in need of convenient space to shoot content across all media platforms. Convoy Studios features a painted cyc, a key art alcove, production offices, talent green room, a conference room, construction space and a video village, along with assorted other resources and amenities. 

Convoy Studios partnered with Copious Management for a kick-off party at the stage on March 1 to present the work of many of Copious’ photographers whose work spans advertising, editorial and music assignments. Convoy’s central location makes it ideal for clients who want their talent to stay within proximity of Hollywood and L.A.’s Westside.
