The G-Star Studios, the largest motion picture studio in Florida, and the G-Star
School of the Arts in Palm Springs proudly announce the opening of their new
state-of-the-art motion picture sound stage in June. The sound stage is not only
the largest in the State of Florida, it is the most technologically advanced
sound stage in the world. The sound stage
(click picture to enlarge)
is equal in size to the sound stages
in Los Angeles where Jurassic Park III, The Incredible Hulk movies and Bruce
Almighty were made; and where Desperate Housewives and Two and a Half Men are
produced today. With 35' to the grid, it has major league height to "fly" in.
It has a dynamic smoke evacuation system that will remove smoke from forest fire
scenes in less than two minutes; and it has quick-release drains for rain & hurricanes scenes. The massive A/C units handling the
500,000 plus cubic feet of performance stage are custom made to shut on and off
fifty times per day the moment the Director shouts "action" and "cut". The
lighting, sound, A/C's, plus super power in the grid and on the floor and a host
of other electrical functions are all controlled by a specialized computer
system. It also has 22' elephant doors for load-in for huge sets constructed in
the Studio B scenic design shop next door and additional 12' load-in doors to
allow easy maneuverability for set assembly.
