ODR Studios is New Jersey's most versatile shoot location — a 10,000 sq ft industrial complex in Newark with exposed brick, concrete floors, column-free stage space, and the raw character that productions spend hours replicating on a backlot.
Located minutes from Manhattan, our space is the first call for NYC-based production companies, advertising agencies, and independent filmmakers who need a premium NJ shoot location without the premium price tag of a Manhattan studio.
