A Natural Sci-Fi Environment
ODR Studios' industrial space has an inherent visual quality that sci-fi productions immediately recognize: raw concrete, exposed structural steel, brick, and pipes combine into an environment that looks fabricated for the genre but is entirely real. Add your lighting, set dressing, and practical effects — and the space transforms into a spacecraft, underground facility, research lab, or dystopian cityscape.
The column-free open floor provides the unobstructed footprint needed for large set builds, and 18 ft ceilings give you the vertical clearance to construct multi-level environments and suspend overhead rigs.
