A capability guide to the studio landscape across the South of England — West Sussex, East Sussex, Hampshire, Surrey and Kent. Rather than rank named facilities, it maps which capabilities are common, which are rare, and where Granary Digital fits — so you can judge any studio by what your shoot actually needs.
