Commerce reflects a fundamental shift in how productions are conceived and executed. Teams are smaller. Timelines are tighter. Yet expectations for quality, speed, and technical excellence remain as high as ever. PIER59 Studios Commerce is built specifically to meet those realities.
Designed for the Modern Production Workflow
Studios 8, 9, and 10 have long been integral parts of the PIER59 Studios campus. Under Commerce, they are thoughtfully packaged to support contemporary production needs, whether for editorial, advertising, content creation, brand storytelling, or emerging formats.
Each studio offers:
Flexible layouts optimized for efficient turnarounds
Access to PIER59 Studios' professional-grade infrastructure
Optional bundled equipment, grip, and production support
Seamless integration with on-site services and logistics
Two full-scale cycloramas in Studio 10
By simplifying how space and resources are booked, Commerce removes friction from the production process, allowing teams to focus more on creative execution and less on coordination.
Modern Budgets, Without Compromise
Commerce is not about scaling back, it's about scaling smarter. A production model that respects financial constraints while still delivering the technical reliability and production mastery PIER59 Studios is known for.
"The tools have changed, the teams have changed, and the economics have changed, but the need for quality, legally compliant spaces where clients feel safe as properly insurable, supported by trusted expertise hasn't," said Federico Pignatelli della Leonessa, Founder and President of PIER59 Studios. "Commerce is our answer to that reality. It's about removing friction from the process so creators can focus on the work, not the logistics. One space for everything."
An Extension of a 30-Year Legacy
Launching as PIER59 Studios celebrates 30 years of creative evolution, Commerce represents the next chapter in the studio's ongoing commitment to supporting artists and storytellers as tools, technologies, and workflows change.
"Commerce is about meeting creators where they are today," said David D'Amico, Studio Director at PIER59 Studios. "It's a response to how production has evolved, leaner teams, faster cycles, and the need for infrastructure that adapts rather than dictates. Studios 8, 9, and 10 are perfectly suited for that future."
PIER59 Studios Commerce is now available for booking.
