Which package should I choose?

Choose by what you want to walk out with. Studio Essentials ($199/hour) fits short solo episodes, quick reels, course modules and simple interviews: one clean 4K angle, studio sound and lighting, and a technician who starts and monitors the recording. Studio Recording ($250/hour) is for podcasts, business interviews, YouTube channels and multi-camera productions: a full crew runs three 4K angles, and you get raw files within 24 hours to edit yourself or hand to an editor. Studio Recording + Enhanced Edit ($455/hour) is for people who want a complete, ready-to-post YouTube video without editing anything.

In money terms, Studio Recording costs $51 more per hour than Essentials and buys you the crew and two extra camera angles. Enhanced Edit costs $205 more per hour than Studio Recording and buys the finished multicam edit. See what the Enhanced Edit includes and how the three-camera setup works.

What costs extra?

The hourly price covers the package as published. According to the studio's Terms of Service, these are available for an additional fee: more camera angles and microphones (room for two more microphones and inputs for up to five camera angles), on-site editing on the Rodecaster switchboard, extended sessions and added services. Prices for add-ons are not published, so ask for the current price when you book.

How do I book a session or take a free tour?

Book online on Podyx: every set has its own booking link, so you pick the look and the time in one step. Prefer to talk first? Message the studio on WhatsApp, send an iMessage or text, call +1 954-579-1004, or write on Instagram. To see the sets in person before paying a deposit, request a free studio tour.

Can I rent the studio for videos that are not podcasts?

Yes, as long as the format fits a seated studio set. The studio describes Studio Essentials as a fit for quick reels, course modules and simple interviews, and Studio Recording for YouTube channels, business interviews and multi-camera productions. Founders, real estate agents, coaches and creators book the same packages for interview series, educational videos and talking-head content. See the content creation studio page for creator formats.

How do these prices compare with other Fort Lauderdale studios?

Fort Lauderdale studios price very differently: self-serve rooms where you run the gear yourself usually cost less per hour, while studios with a crew, several 4K cameras and editing cost more. Compare like with like, by what you get at the end of the hour: number of camera angles, whether someone runs the session, and when the files arrive.
