Commercial Production Studio in Tampa Bay
Shear Media Studios is Tampa Bay's commercial production facility — 11,000 sq. ft. with two production stages, purpose-built infrastructure, and a full support crew environment. Studio A (~3,000 sq. ft.) and Studio G (5,700 sq. ft.) serve pharmaceutical, automotive, corporate, lifestyle, and brand commercial productions.
Why Commercial Productions Choose Shear Media Studios
Commercial production requires controlled infrastructure, not improvised setups. The lighting needs to be rigged and repeatable. The signal path needs to be clean. The support spaces need to function for a production crew that is working all day. A repurposed warehouse with a roll-up door does not meet these requirements.
Shear Media Studios was built specifically for production. Both stages have overhead rigging grids, hardwired connection to the L6 Control Room, and the support spaces to run a full-day commercial shoot: greenroom, dedicated hair and makeup room, kitchen, video village, workshop, and changing areas.
Studio A — Commercial Production
- Size: ~3,000 sq. ft.
- Primary uses: Pharmaceutical commercials, corporate spots, broadcast interviews, green screen, cyclorama, product launches
- Overhead grid: Full rigging grid for lighting packages
- Control room: Hardwired to L6 for live switching, streaming, or monitoring
Studio G — Large Commercial Production
- Size: 5,700 sq. ft.
- Bay doors: Three bay doors for vehicle, equipment, and prop access
- Primary uses: Automotive commercials, large-scale retail spots, pharmaceutical with full set, corporate events, branded activations
- Set builds: Sufficient ceiling height and floor space for multi-set commercial productions
Commercial Categories That Use Shear Media Studios
Pharmaceutical and healthcare: Controlled lighting environment for talent-on-green-screen and lifestyle shoots; script-compliant production environment with private consultation spaces for talent direction.
Automotive: Studio G's three bay doors allow vehicles to be driven directly onto the stage floor. Sufficient ceiling clearance for low angles without floor compression. Overhead grid for three-point and practical lighting setups.
Corporate and B2B: Studio A handles broadcast-quality talking-head, interview, and presenter formats. L6 hardwire enables live distribution or multi-camera monitoring from the control room during the shoot.
Retail and lifestyle: Both studios support product-focused shoots with the ability to run multiple sets in a single day given the overhead rigging capacity and production support environment.
