Harbor expands with dedicated dailies facility as Shepperton Studios

Harbor announce the opening of a new dedicated dailies facility at Shepperton Studios, strengthening its position as a leader in post-production services. This purpose-built facility will provide state-of-the-art dailies capabilities, including an HDR grading and screening room engineered to support the exceptional creative output and leading technical standards.  

The new Harbor-at-Shepperton location features high-speed production data uploads to studio and cloud storage, as well as Anchor – Harbor’s proprietary set-to-screen workflow platform – ensuring seamless integration with both local and remote workflows. This service is available to all clients, reinforcing Harbor’s commitment to providing versatile solutions that cater to a wide range of production needs, including those of independent filmmakers, studios, and major streaming platforms. 

Located in one of the UK’s most significant production hubs, the Shepperton facility is strategically positioned to support productions from a variety of clients. Shepperton Studios is a key site for industry giants such as Netflix, which has created a major production base there, and Amazon Studios, which recently signed a multimillion-pound deal to expand their operations at the historic studio complex. 

The facility offers a direct connection to both Harbor’s Turnmills studio in Central London – serving as the creative backbone – and its proprietary high-speed network, enabling secure collaboration across the company’s global infrastructure. This includes brick-and-mortar studios in New York, Los Angeles, Atlanta, and Chicago, as well as 90 satellite facilities with local billing capabilities. 

“Harbor’s mission is to provide a premium experience through a centralised hub for innovative front-end production support and full post-production services, ensuring a seamless set-to-screen workflow that meets the needs of today’s filmmakers,” says Thom Berryman, UK Managing Director at Harbor. “With this new Shepperton facility, we’re bringing cutting-edge solutions to one of the most storied studios in the industry, reinforcing our commitment to delivering exceptional services that meet the evolving demands of modern production.” 

The Harbor-at-Shepperton dailies facility also serves as a UK hub for Harbor Virtual Lab maintenance and distribution, positioning Harbor as a strategic partner for productions requiring versatile, global post-production solutions. 

Harbor’s extensive network will support operations at the new facility, providing access to its renowned international talent pool and ensuring filmmakers benefit from the expertise of a team dedicated to high-quality dailies, color grading, color science, and seamless project integration from set to screen.
