Where is Creative Kicks Media now?
Creative Kicks Media is at The Cotton Mills in Footscray, in Melbourne's inner west. Same crew, same gear, same work. Just a new address.
The full address is The Cotton Mills, 38/91 Moreland Street, Footscray VIC 3011. It's also written as Unit 38, 91 Moreland Street. We're by appointment only, so check in before you come. Our contact page has directions for finding us inside the Mills.
Why did we move to Footscray?
We moved for more room and a setup that lets us work smarter. After years in the Chapel Street precinct in Windsor, it came down to one thing: more room, and being set up to work smarter.
After years of running Creative Kicks out of the south, it was a bit sad to leave. We have lots of great memories, and we loved the Chapel Street precinct. But with change comes bigger and better things. The Cotton Mills gives us more space, a better layout and proper creative energy around us, right by the Maribyrnong River. The new studio gives us a cleaner workflow and more flexibility, while keeping everything focused on what we've always done: high end audio, sharp drone video, photography, compelling podcasts and reliable hire gear.
What's at the Cotton Mills studio?
Our podcast studio, our audio hire base and the home of our production crew. Everything we do is based in the one building now.
- The podcast studio. It's open. An acoustically treated room with an experienced operator running every session. Not a booth in a co working space. You turn up and talk. See the podcast studio in Footscray.
- Hire pickups and returns. A dedicated space for faster pickups and quick returns. In and out. No messing around or stepping over piles of gear. Or skip the trip, and we'll deliver across Melbourne. See audio equipment hire, and how pickup, return and delivery work.
- The production crew. Drone photography and video, location sound, audio post and live production are all based here. See our production services.
Who is the new studio closer to?
Anyone in the west and the inner suburbs. Whether you're in Footscray, Yarraville or Docklands, the north or further west, we're now closer and easier to get to.
Being based this side of the city also means we can respond quickly to westside projects, early starts and location audio jobs without the long commute. If you've worked with us before, you'll know what to expect. If you haven't, the door's open.
