A new, purpose-built film and TV studio is to open in Hertfordshire this spring, the first high-spec facility in the St Albans area. 

Situated in Radlett, OMA V Film Studios is from studio owner-operator Location Collective, and is designed for a single, high-end TV production or feature film.   

The five-acre site (within the M25) includes 65,000 sq ft of sound stages (1 x 32,000 sq ft stage and 2 x 16,500 sq ft stages), fully soundproofed; 35,600 sq ft of production office and support space and a power upgrade to ensure the facility can run from renewable stage and house power.

Antony Iredale, founder of Location Collective, said: “We are hugely excited to be launching our third film studio in such a prime geographical location for film and TV production, and very proud to have created the first high specification film studio in the St Albans area at such a pivotal moment for our industry.   

“We look forward to welcoming our first production onto the stages at OMA V, and to delivering the same quality of service customers are already experiencing at our currently operational facilities, OMA One Film Studios and OMA X Film Studios.”  

Samantha Perahia, head of production UK, British Film Commission, added: “We welcome the opening of OMA V Film Studios which, building on timely and welcome action announced by Government in the Spring Budget, further demonstrates the strength of the UK’s world class film and TV industry, and its ability to contribute significantly to the UK economy as a whole.”

The OMA Studio Group now encompasses 480,000 sq ft of production facilities including OMA One Film Studios, OMA X Film Studios and OMA V Film Studios.
