Our Story

About

West Cork Film Studios is a new leading light in film and TV production studios.

Located in the heart of West Cork, the Riviera of Ireland, on the edge of Skibbereen town, but surrounded by countryside. Nestled in the centre of the most diverse variety of locations in Ireland, within minutes of several places of extraordinary natural beauty, yet within reach of urban film locations. Walking distance to the town, with many cafes, restaurants and hotels.

Our Story

WCFS was founded by a small group of highly experienced film makers living in West Cork who recognised the express needs of the rapidly expanding film and TV production industry. Teaming up with an established world class furniture factory, it wasn't a broad leap to diversify the building into a production studio.

We share a vision.

To embrace new ecologically friendly technologies and choose best practice when it comes to environmental sustainability.  WCFS is a state of the art facility, with arguably the best equipped, construction workshop in the country!

We use our expertise to be innovative in how we assist productions by strategising, organising and executing a seamless shoot. We have an experienced film crew all within the radius of the studios.

Skibbereen is Ireland's first gigabit digital hub, with ultra fast internet connection and lest we forget, West Cork is the food capital of Ireland!

A micro-climate of creativity.

The full potential of West Cork for film making, has yet to be realised. With its coastal areas warmed by the Gulf Stream, temperatures are warmer than other parts of Ireland,  this micro climate supports a lush almost tropical vegetation, dense woodland, and extraordinary beaches. Each town offers  different possibilities, from unspoilt historical locations to contemporary architectural styling.
