Airport Terminal Set

Airport Terminal set rental for film and TV, at our Burbank and Albuquerque studios. The Airport Terminal Set is a photoreal virtual set that appears around your talent live, in camera, and it loads in seconds with no set construction.

More about this set

  • Check-in counters
  • A TSA-style security checkpoint with queue lanes and stanchion runs
  • A shopping and kiosk area and a mezzanine
  • Gate seating
  • Baggage claim with a moving carousel and departure display boards

The airport terminal set puts the whole airport in one booking: check-in, a TSA-style security checkpoint, gate seating and baggage claim with a moving carousel. If all you need is a security checkpoint rental for one scene, it comes with the terminal, so the screening scene shoots in the same building as the goodbye at the gate.

Airport terminal film set, from check-in to baggage claim

The international airport set is a complete terminal built in Unreal Engine: check-in, security, a shopping and kiosk area, a mezzanine, gate seating and baggage claim. Real airports are among the hardest locations to permit, with security restrictions and no control of the schedule. Here every part of the terminal is a separate filming location on one set, and the whole building loads in seconds.

The details that sell an airport on camera are built in: a moving baggage carousel and departure display boards. Signage and details can be customized to your fictional airline and city, and the terminal takes nearly unlimited customization. Real luggage, stanchions and seating can dress the foreground, and they blend with the virtual terminal in camera. The studio includes lighting and audio packages, with an optional crew package if you want one.

From the gate to the flight: pair the terminal with a plane

Pair the terminal with the airplane set for the coach cabin and cockpit, the airliner set for a polished airliner cabin and in-flight scenes, and the private jet set for a business jet. Browse every airplane and airport set, read about the airport terminal film set, or see how film studio rental works for a series or feature. To see the terminal before you book, ask for a studio tour and live demo in Burbank when you check availability.

Common questions

Can you rent an airport terminal set for filming?

Yes. The airport terminal set is a virtual standing set you can book at our Burbank and Albuquerque studios. Real airports are among the hardest locations to permit, with security restrictions and no control of the schedule. Here you get check-in, security, gates and a baggage claim with a moving carousel, all loading in seconds, and you run the day.

What does the airport terminal set include?

The terminal covers check-in counters, a TSA-style security checkpoint, a shopping and kiosk area, a mezzanine, gate seating, and baggage claim with a moving carousel and departure display boards. It's a photoreal virtual environment captured in camera, and real luggage, stanchions, and seating can dress the foreground where your actors play the scene. Signage and details can be customized to your fictional airline and city.

Can you rent an airport security checkpoint set?

Yes. The TSA-style security checkpoint, with its queue lanes and stanchion runs, is part of the airport terminal set, so the screening scene shoots in the same terminal as check-in and the gate. Real stanchions, bins and tables can dress the foreground where your actors play the scene.

Can the airport terminal set connect to an airplane scene?

Yes. Sets swap between setups the same day, so the terminal can share a shoot day with our airplane set, airliner set or business jet set. The goodbye at the gate and the flight itself shoot without a company move.
