Rushcutters Bay Studio

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rushcutters Bay Studio was an Australian film studio built by Charles Cozens Spencer in 1912 at Rushcutters Bay, Sydney.[1][2][3][4]

For a number of years it was the leading film studio in Sydney, being the base of operations for Australasian Films. In 1925 that company built a new studio.[5]

In 1933 Cinesound Productions converted the studios into a backup for their main studios at Bondi.[6]
