RØDECaster Video S kit — £60 per session
Choose the RØDECaster Video S kit for £60 per session instead of the £30 audio kit. Bring compatible iPhones or cameras, or request our Canon cameras separately, subject to availability and pricing. Arrange Video S hire in advance.
This is self-operated equipment hire. You operate the cameras and audio recorder; an engineer, editing and audio-to-video synchronisation are not included. Room hire is separate.
Your room. Your setup. A clear price.
Included in room hire
Private use for your reserved session, the existing studio furniture, natural light, Wi-Fi, free parking and kitchen and toilet facilities.
Choose your extras
Podcast equipment £30 per session, continuous lighting £20 per booking, softbox lighting £20 per booking, or a reusable backdrop £30 per booking. Select only what your recording needs.
Bring your recording kit
Cameras, microphones, audio recording and editing are your responsibility. An engineer is not included. Ask us before booking if you need to arrange equipment.
The studio is upstairs with stair access and is not soundproof. Discuss any access or audio requirements before booking. Setup, sound checks and packing away must fit within your reserved time.
Podcast filming space within reach of Leicester
Selfie Studios is based in Bulkington, Warwickshire, near Coventry, with a route from Leicester through the M69 corridor. If a private setting and space to shape the look of your production matter more than a city-centre address, the studio gives you a practical place to create.
Choose a room-based scene for a conversation, bring props that reflect your brand, or ask about a separately hired backdrop for presenter-led filming. The space works around your creative brief. Your team supplies the cameras, microphones and recording workflow, while you book the time and any available lighting or backdrop extras you need.
What would you like to film?
Video podcasts & guest conversations
Create a setting for your show with your own camera and audio kit, whether you are filming a guest interview or a presenter-led episode.
YouTube tutorials & demonstrations
Bring the products or props you need and plan a suitable frame for an explainer, demonstration or educational video.
Brand & agency content days
Use a private session for interviews, campaign clips and business videos, with the lighting and background agreed before you arrive.
Space, light and a look that suits your content
Use the natural light, neutral interiors and existing furniture as a starting point. Bring your own props and branding, or ask which backdrops are available for your date. For a consistent series, plan your framing and lighting before the first take.
Continuous lighting can be hired for £20 per booking. Our reusable 1.8 × 2.8 m green-screen backdrop is £30 per booking. Both are separate from room hire. Check your planned shot with us first; the green screen suits carefully framed presenter work rather than a large production stage.
Bring a filming brief, leave with useful footage
If you are travelling from Leicester, plan the session around the content you want to take away: a main episode, a few introductions and short clips for your channels. Agree who operates the camera and checks the audio, prepare your questions and allow for set changes. A clear brief helps you get more from the space without rushing the recording.
Before your session
- Book enough time for setup, sound checks and packing away.
- Bring your cameras, microphones, power supplies and suitable memory cards.
- Agree any lighting, backdrop and attendee requirements in advance.
Make the recording yours
Your team operates the cameras and audio equipment and handles editing afterwards. Wi-Fi is available, but check your connection needs with us before planning a livestream or a remote guest.
The room is not a soundproof recording booth. For dialogue-led work, discuss your audio needs and make a short sound test before the main take.
Make a Leicester recording trip worthwhile
If you are bringing a guest from Leicester, plan the running order before you travel: a short sound check, the main interview, any follow-up answers and then packing away. Reserve enough studio time for the complete session rather than only the planned episode length. Confirm the Bulkington location and upstairs access with every attendee.
For a course or educational series, group scripts by camera angle and backdrop to reduce repeated setup. Bring a local copy of your notes and media, and confirm connection requirements before relying on a remote guest or livestream. Equipment hire needs advance agreement; the room booking alone does not reserve a camera or microphones.
