Preparing for a shoot at Mood Board Studios
We created Mood Board Studios to be as efficient as possible, with everything you need right at your fingertips. Everything (and we mean everything: label makers rock) is labeled, carts easily glide on the concrete floors so you can bring props or gear to your set, the studio sink is a few steps away to dump wine or beverages, the kitchen is easily accessible from the entire studio, the meeting space is at-the-ready for impromptu regroups on shoot days.

- Bring your lights
- Bring custom props and surfaces
- Bring your subject, whether that's a product or a person!
