Great to welcome the talented honours year film students from @swinburne University for a behind-the-scenes tour of our studio lot.
These future filmmakers got a glimpse of where the magic is made, and hopefully we`ll see some of them back here, working on a future production. 🎬

🎬 Not your average day on set!
Our sound stage turned into a test track for remote control cars, gimbals, and e-bikes as @XM2 and @filmtipspro ran a remote head workshop here at the studio.
Behind-the-scenes fun... a few grown-ups being big kids with some seriously cool toys. 🎮

🎨 How many litres does it take to paint a film studio?
We’re still crunching the numbers, but it`s definitely enough to keep our sound stages looking fresh and new.

🔥 Blast from the Past 🔥
20 years ago, Ghost Rider rolled into Melbourne and lit up our stages. 🏍💀
With Nicolas Cage and Eva Mendes and a Hollywood budget it was one of the biggest productions this city had ever seen.
Filmed here on our studio lot (then known as Central City Studios), Ghost Rider turned Melbourne into a comic-book inferno with hundreds of crew, stunt actors and extras who proved the city could handle the heat. 🎥

Some recent pics from @nantstudios virtual production facility here on the lot.
Its cutting-edge LED volume technology was a fitting backdrop for an address to screen industry leaders by @framestore founder and global VFX pioneer Sir William Sargent, about the economic and cultural importance of creative industries.
