Soundstages are blank canvas spaces used to create new worlds. ONStage at Kaufman Astoria Studios two soundstages are purposefully designed to be “plug-in ready”, with every system and surface intentionally designed to handle any type, size, and style of production. Six-foot beams were built to achieve a 40-foot-high ceiling space with 90-foot clear spans. Every beam is equipped with multiple rigging points, allowing production crews to suspend anything they need anywhere in the space—up to 1,500 pounds can hang from each strongpoint. Mechanical ductwork is designed with multiple plug-in points, allowing production crews to control air distribution.

The perimeter of the stages provides attachment points to brace and tether film set walls or set components hanging above. The modern open office environment on levels 2 through 4 provides a mix of private offices and large open bullpen space, 14-foot ceilings with 11-foot-high windows for daylight and expansive city views, outdoor terrace and balcony areas.
