Loft 19 Studios was founded in 2003 by former Major League Baseball players Floyd & Brian Bannister. Floyd was the #1 overall draft pick in the 1976 baseball draft and a Major League All-Star, leading the American League in strikeouts in 1982.
The concept was to provide the same luxuries found in major studios around the world to creative professionals needing to shoot in the Southwest. Starting with one studio, a cyclorama, and a basic set of Profoto Pro-7 gear, Loft 19 Studios slowly built a reputation for professionalism, customer service, and quality.
After now celebrating its 18th Year Anniversary in the 2nd Quarter of 2021, Loft 19 Studios has morphed into a powerhouse production center that can handle shoots of all sizes and types. There are now three studios, a Two Wall Cyclorama, a Three Wall Cyclorama and a Set Build Studio. The studios have been enhanced with soundproofing for pristine audio capture and a full line of hot lights and grip for film/video production. A Voice Over recording room is also available.
