A new, 10,000 sq ft studio has opened in Bristol, making it the largest independent facility for film, television and commercials production in the city. 

Being launched in phases, Nine Tree Studios is backed by Bristol-based video production company JonesMillbank.

Phase two will see the build and fit-out of a state-of-the-art production facility encompassing a 2,600 sq ft primary soundstage, two smaller 300 sq ft studios, grading suites, wardrobe, sound facilities, and expanded office and meeting space, all housed in a Class-A soundproofed facility.

Phase one has launched, with phase two scheduled for Q3 2023 Q3, pending bookings and demand.

The studios are located near the centre of Bristol in Brislington (BS4); the complex will also become the home of JonesMillbank, allowing other productions to be supported by crew and creatives. 

Russell Jones, co-founder of Nine Tree Studios and JonesMillbank, said: “This is an incredibly exciting chapter in our history. We’ve been based in Bristol for 12 years, steadily growing our team, portfolio and clients, but this represents a huge leap forward and an incredibly exciting development for the region too. 

“We’ve already secured funding to develop and expand the space, helping to support not only our own productions but the wider creative community too”.

It feels fantastic to know we'll be part of such a dynamic industry, celebrating all the region has to offer.”
