Film Actualization

Film Actualization is a film and photography studio on Deptford High Street in South East London. The name reflects our aspiration to help our clients reach their full creative potential. Inspired by Abraham Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, according to this psychological model, self-actualisation is the highest level of human motivation, above basic needs such as food, water, safety, belonging and self-esteem.

Film Actualization is also a philosophy of self-actualization through cinema. Videos resonate with many people in today’s content driven society. Our main aim is to help as many people tell their stories in ways that resonate with other people. If you want to begin to unleash your creativity and actualize your vision, contact us and book a session today. We will help you imagine and create the film that reflects your true self or your business.

Our studio is located on the first floor of 61 Deptford High Street, SE84AA. It sits above a Greengrocers and Juice Bar called Petite Village. Access to our studio is through the front entrance of the Petit Village Shop, if you have booked let a member of the Petite Village staff know and someone will grant you entry.

Upon ascending to the first floor, you’ll first encounter our covered outdoor bar area,

featuring ample natural light thanks to its clear corrugated PVC Roofing.

The staircase to the left is designated for staff members only.

Moving through the bar area, you’ll enter our Studio space, measuring approximately 7m long and 4m wide, with lofty ceilings. The installation of 32mm Aluminium tubes permits the hanging of lighting or props. With the booking, you’ll have access to 2 Godox Flash Lights, which operate continuously, a single Equinox RGB power batten, and an additional continuous light.

We also offer several other lighting options and props for hire upon request, including 2 extra Equinox RGB power battens and a corresponding DMX controller.

In addition to serving as a great set for film and photography, our space has also hosted Supper Clubs, Art Exhibitions, and various other events.

It is an avenue for conveying thoughts, feelings, experiences, and emotions.

In today’s creative landscape, the pinnacle of creativity lies in crafting content that reflects your own creativity. Reserve our studio today and take your content creation to unprecedented heights.

Our Philosophy

Film Actualization is not only the name of the business and the studio, but also the philosophy of its founder Jordan Bailey, who is also a musician.

We see music, photography and filmmaking as ways of telling stories that reflect an individuals inner vision and personal growth.

Our intentions are not to merely produce entertaining or informative content, but to assist members of our team and our clients in expressing themselves and sharing their respective journeys of self-actualization through the art of cinema.

Our film and photography studio is located in South East London.
