Step inside the Art Deco Gillette Studios and get an insight into their transformation into a state-of-the-art film and TV production hub
Step into the iconic Gillette Corner Studios for an immersive afternoon of film and storytelling. Set against a spectacular 150ft semicircular screen, this special event features an eclectic programme of short films – from documentary to drama – created by emerging West London filmmakers. Showcasing fresh voices and perspectives on urban landscapes, community life, and the spaces we live in, the programme includes creative interpretations of the Golden Mile. Part of the GM100 celebrations, it’s a rare opportunity to experience bold, place-based cinema in a landmark of industrial heritage.
