More about this set
Embark on an interstellar journey with the ISS Columbus set at L.A. Castle Studios. This realistic International Space Station set features a highly detailed and accurate representation of the iconic spacecraft, complete with modules, laboratories, and living quarters for your production’s astronauts.
The set’s intricate design includes authentic-looking control panels, scientific equipment, and life-support systems, providing a believable environment for your cast and crew. Real props can sit in the foreground where the cast works, and they blend with the station in camera.
The ISS Columbus set is an exceptional backdrop for science fiction films, documentaries, and educational productions alike. Lighting and audio packages come with the studio, and a virtual system operator runs the set while you shoot.

Common questions
Can you rent a space station set for filming?
Yes. The International Space Station virtual standing set at L.A. Castle Studios in Burbank and Albuquerque recreates the ISS with modules, laboratories, and crew quarters for film, TV, and documentary work. There's no way to shoot on the real station, and physical space-station builds are costly. This environment loads on stage in seconds and stays fully under your control.
Is this a real space station interior?
It's a photoreal virtual standing set. The ISS environment is rendered in real time on stage and captured in camera, with authentic-looking panels, equipment, and modules in the imagery. Real props and set pieces can dress the foreground for actors to touch and work around, and the look can be tailored to your script's needs.
Can we shoot the International Space Station Set and other sets on the same day?
Yes. Sets swap between setups the same day, so the International Space Station Set can share a shoot day with any other set in the library, with no company move.
