Scottish Screen Locations, 2nd Floor, 249 West George Street, Glasgow, G2 4QE

In addition to the free locations finding and research service provided to anyone wanting to film in Scotland, Scottish Screen recognises that filmmakers need good quality studio and set building spaces and have compiled this list of studios, empty warehouses and potential build space.

This list will be updated every three months and we will be happy to include any other empty industrial spaces that become available. The list will provide a full and detailed record of industrial space available in Scotland, and will also show which productions have used the space previously. As this is a working document, the list is subject to change, and inclusion on this list does not guarantee that a space will be available.

Scottish Screen has compiled the list: it is up to the production to deal with the owners directly, arrange for the use of the space and complete all the paperwork. Scottish Screen cannot be held responsible for the state of the buildings, and it should be realised that some spaces may require cleaning or additional blackout/ soundproofing.

We are happy to amend any details if they are incorrect.

For further details of empty commercial properties in Scotland please see:http://www.scottishproperty.co.uk/Free/searchform.cfm
