Where can I record a video podcast in Toronto?

You can record a video podcast in Toronto at IAVA Studio, a studio in Kensington Market run by IAVA Productions, which also handles editing, clips and distribution. A good podcast studio has controlled light, clean sound, more than one camera and a set that looks the way you want your show to look. IAVA Studio has six setups, multi-camera recording and a full production team if you want one.

What should a video podcast studio have?

  • Controlled light, so every episode looks the same.
  • Good sound with dedicated podcast microphones.
  • Multiple cameras, so you can cut between hosts and guests.
  • A set or background that matches your brand.
  • Space for guests, a crew and a waiting area.
  • Flexible booking, so you can record on a schedule that fits your show.

What does IAVA Studio offer for podcasts?

IAVA Studio at 250 Augusta Ave, Unit 204B, is 18 by 35 feet and fits up to 20 people. It has fully controlled light, a makeup station and a waiting area.

Can I just rent the studio, or do I need the full service?

Both work. External crews are welcome in the studio. If you want end-to-end help, IAVA Productions handles strategy, branding, multi-camera recording, editing, 8 to 10 clips per episode and distribution.

Examples from our work

  • Between 2 Brunettes. A podcast built from scratch with a custom studio setup, branding and 10+ episodes produced. The hosts focused on the conversation while we handled the production.
