Atlanta's Film Studio Landscape: A Guide for Productions Shooting in Georgia

Atlanta has cemented its place as one of the top three film and television production hubs in the world, and the studio infrastructure that supports that status has never been more impressive. For productions planning to shoot in Georgia, here is a current overview of the major studio facilities — and what that means for craft service and catering logistics on your set.

Assembly Atlanta opened in September 2023 on the former General Motors Assembly Plant site in Doraville. Developed in partnership with Gray Television and NBCUniversal Media, the facility offers 10 sound stages, extensive production office space, and a public entertainment zone. With capacity for up to 4,000 full-time production workers, Assembly Atlanta is already attracting major film and television projects and represents one of the most significant additions to Georgia's production infrastructure in years.

Electric Owl Studios launched in June 2023 in DeKalb County with a focus on sustainability. Featuring solar panels, rainwater harvesting, and three sound stages, Electric Owl has earned recognition as one of the most environmentally responsible studio facilities in the country. Productions seeking an eco-conscious approach without sacrificing professional-grade infrastructure have taken notice.

Trilith Studios in Fayetteville — formerly Pinewood Atlanta — continues to expand. With over 20 sound stages and a purpose-built production community on the surrounding property, Trilith is home to some of the largest productions filming in Georgia, including major streaming and studio titles. Its Stage 16 expansion added another 30,000 square feet of shooting space, further solidifying Trilith's position as the anchor of Georgia's studio ecosystem.

Lionsgate Studios Atlanta, anchored within the Great Point Studios complex in Douglasville, added 12 sound stages and 500,000 square feet of production space to the region's capacity. Together, these facilities give Atlanta one of the deepest benches of professional studio infrastructure anywhere in the world.

For craft service and production catering companies in Atlanta, this studio expansion means more productions, more shooting days, and more opportunities to serve the cast and crew who make these projects happen.
