Shoot days at UPL Studios are fun and productive. The newly revamped studios are fantastic. Attention to detail is top notch and we are always really pleased with our end results. From start to finish

We have been working with them regularly for over a year now and cannot fault the experience from start to finish. It’s amazing to have multiple different rooms and layouts for different content.

UPL… are so much more than we thought..: Producers, Creatives, Directors, Editors… and have hugely become a part of the team when it comes to our Size By Side YouTube creations.

We're based at 1 Wells Street, Chelmsford, just a 30-second walk from Chelmsford Station, so we're less than 30 minutes from London Liverpool Street by train.
If you're driving, you'll find long-stay parking at Townfield Street Car Park, with West End Car Park just around the corner for shorter visits.
You're welcome to arrive a few minutes early and use the client lounge where space allows, but access to your studio begins at your booked start time. If you finish early, the remaining time can't be refunded or credited because the studio has been reserved exclusively for you.
The lounge, kitchen and Hair & Makeup Room are shared by everyone using the studios. Please keep your belongings neatly inside your booked studio wherever possible, use only the space you need and keep noise down throughout the building. It's a recording environment, so being considerate helps every client have a comfortable session.
