Main facilities of the studio

In the past, the most commonly used studio was the mud floor, because it was economical and convenient to use, and it was also possible to dig holes and nail piles. The floor is stable and there is no vibration. However, dust is easy to fly when in use, so it is difficult to level the scene, and it is also more troublesome to lay a moving track for photography. Wood floors are expensive, and there are two ways to lay them. One is to lay a thick wooden floor, on which you can easily push and pull the camera car and large microphone bracket; It can reduce the humidity in the shed, which is beneficial to the drying of the scenery and crown after painting; It's not muddy when shooting the rain scene, so it's convenient to keep it clean. The other is the wooden floor, which can bear the load without deformation and can nail the landscape. This kind of ground can use short wood to save wood. However, the vertical wood block is easy to expand when it is wet, so it must be treated by oil immersion, and attention should be paid to maintenance during use. Mud floor and wooden floor have their own advantages and disadvantages, and can be selected according to needs. A studio has several studios, some with mud floors, and some with wooden floors as needed. No matter what kind of ground, a circle of concrete ground should be laid within 3 ~ 4 meters wide from the wall. Some also set up a circle of drainage ditches on the concrete floor in front of the canopy.

There are two kinds of recording studios that can be used for synchronous recording, and some are not. Due to the different use requirements, the two studios are very different in structure. The main studio of a film studio should generally be able to record at the same time. Only a few studios can't record at the same time, and their area is generally small, which can be used for some sporadic shooting or trick photography. However, for a large studio with an area of about 1 1,500 square meters, it is generally unnecessary to increase the conditions for simultaneous recording when shooting large scenes or simulating outdoor scenes. A studio usually has a working door for transporting scenery, props, lighting equipment, etc. A small door can be opened on the work door for staff to enter and exit. In addition, a small door leading to the actor's lounge or dressing room can be added, which can also be used as a safety door. In areas with high humidity, we can consider opening two doors to facilitate air convection and keep the shed dry. The size of the working door is based on the principle of maximum access to the scenery. At the same time, the sound insulation requirements of the recording door of the studio should be strict. There are generally two ways: one is to use a double-door door bucket. In addition to the sound insulation treatment of the door leaf and the door crack, sound-absorbing materials are installed in the door bucket to form a combined door that can isolate external noise; Second, the door leaf adopts multi-layer structure, with damping materials filled between layers, and the door crack is inflated and sealed with elastic materials or rubber pipes.
