Scott asks:

In short what would your dream studio contain?

[/ QUOTE ]

1. Large (!) shooting area with:
(a) one wall completely covered by mirrors...
(b) the opposite wall covered by floor to ceiling windows facing north
(c) enough space to have a couple of setups going at the same time
(d) chairs, tables, stools, couches, canopy bed, window flats, paintable wall flats, maybe a cyclorama
(e) enough storage/shelf space for my equipment to be at close at hand
(f) air conditioned down to 70 degrees with every damned light in the studio turned on full blast in the middle of summer (!)
(g) heatable to 80 degrees in the middle of winter
(g) large garage door access to studio big enough for a Hummer to drive into the studio

2. Several light setups with softboxes, umbrellas, dishes, barndoors, snoots, cranes, etc.

3. Dressing area with closet space, makeup table with stage lights, etc. Private restroom for the model(s).

4. Kitchenette with fridge, bottled water cooler, microwave, sink, table

5. Break area adjacent to kitchenette with couch / chair / TV / stero

6. Office area with editing station, good monitors, printer, high speed internet, etc.

Oh, and the studio would rent to me for $25/hour or $100/all day.

Hey, you did say "dream studio", right? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]
