This place is just massive inside with a number of studios to fit your specific film or photo shoot need. It also works great for private parties and specialty venues like BBQFilms movie nights. The cyc walls in white and green screen green add a great value for the space. The guys that run this place are super cool too.
My one stop shop fo green screen, white cyclorama, warehouse space, set design and build. Super film friendly and knowledgeable. Just wish it was closer to the train ;)
I've worked out of this studio many times. The drive-on stage is great for loading in/out, plenty of power, good street parking for crew/agency, comfortable HMU/Green rooms and basic GE package in-house. The owners are a great group of talented set builders and artists themselves, which is an added bonus. Can't recommend Windmill enough! The space is great and so are the folks that run it.
I've been working with Windmill for nearly a decade. I love the laid-back atmosphere and willingness to answer any question. Great stage and fabrication house, convenient location. Whenever a producer doesn't have a stage booked I always suggest Windmill because I love it so damn much :)
Without a doubt, the best scenic designers in NYC, and we've worked with a few. The talented, creative, and super cool folks at Windmill build and install the most beautiful, highest quality, and sturdiest children's libraries and decor for our preschools, community centers, and family homeless shelters in NYC and across the country. While they are known for their exceptional production, film, tv, commercials, etc. work, they also literally and figuratively create magic for our non-profit, they transform educational spaces into works of art and places for children to be delighted, inspired, and happy as they learn to read. Books For Kids relies on Windmill for their expertise, professionalism, and passion in their craft. Truly, an amazing company run by people with huge hearts who take immense pride in their incredible artistry and and have partnered with us for years to serve under-resourced communities.
Great place. Great people. Wonderful film and photo studio.
This is a very nice place. It's a really good vibe for filming and it's very clean. It looks very green and there are tons of locations near by where you can eat. It's hard to get to from where I live but the experience was worth it and the building is great.
My wife and I were lucky enough to attend a film at Windmill Studios that was part of the Brooklyn Film Festival. We watched Wildlike and highly recommend it! Windmill Studios is a simple, straightforward space. We can't speak to its other uses, only its status as a movie venue for a film festival. The large back room had enough chairs for a large crowd. The screen was the perfect size for the space. It was a great setting for a great movie.
You don't get better than Bennett, Adam, and the Windmill Studios Family. And thats what they are. In a city (and industry) full of asinine personalities, Windmill is a breath of fresh air for those of us in production. They offer a killer, versatile space with flexible rates, and do so while maintaining and operating with a familial atmosphere. You can't go wrong with Windmill. Tell 'em Josh sent ya.
Brooklyn Film Festival has been using Windmill Studios for the past eight years. We love the space and our experience with the owners and the management has been seamless. Everybody is super professional and accommodating. Rates are competitive and the location is great.
Our team has worked with Windmill multiple times. Their creative minds have always fulfilled our needs. We like the Greenpoint location, it's a cool spot.
I would trust this team with any event, set, or activation (and have, large and small). BBQ Films would not be the company it is now without their help. Much appreciation for their partnership.
Thr reviews I've read here stated that this is a place that has events. Windmill Studios also states on their website that "No job is too small" I've called this business 3 times to inquire about having events there and the rep blew me off EVERY SINGLE TIME. Didn't ask me how many people I was having at the event, nothing. Dont know how the space is but the customer service is enough to not make me want to.
One giant space! Whether you are shooting a film, music video or just need room to host a event or private party the guys at Windmill Studios are there to work with you on each and every detail. This place is much more than a space, it's endless to any opportunity that is in front of it.
Awesome Staff! Great Energy! Always welcoming and always ready to help!
Can't say enough about how awesome these guys are. If you need a set, a studio, a prop, whatever...these guys can make it happen. I've used them countless times on my projects and could not be happier with the results and professionalism. If you need to film in New York, give them a call.
Very accommodating, great facility- will use again!
I've used Windmill Studios several times throughout my years of producing. They can do everything - design and build sets, handle an installation at another studio, rent you a studio with or without gear... I love how flexible it is. It's also a relaxed environment. Perfect for when I have clients on set.
The studio has a ton of space, an isolated HMU room, and it's also a great place to rent if you need to film at other locations in Greenpoint. I've used their studio for holding.
These guys are some of the best in the game. The space, location, and professional staff are top notch. Very accommodating and creative group. Can't recommend them enough for any shoot. Large or small.
Great shooting space for photo or video. Huge client/production areas. The team that runs the space is truly amazing.
