A Podcast-First Creative Studio in Portland, Maine

The Black Owl Studio is a professional podcast studio, video studio, and audio production space in Portland, Maine, built for creators who care about quality, consistency, and growth. Our mission is simple: create a space where ideas turn into finished content and where creators can show up, press record, and focus on what they do best.

We’re a podcast-first content studio designed to support everything from solo shows and interview podcasts to branded series, video podcasts, and full-scale content production. Think of Black Owl as a modern content factory, engineered for audio, optimized for video, and supported by people who understand the creative process.

State-of-the-Art Podcast & Video Production

Located in the Back Cove area of Portland, Maine, The Black Owl Studio is a fully equipped, professional-grade production space.

Downstairs, our main production studio features a 24-foot cyc wall, ideal for:

• Video podcasts

• Branded content

• Interviews and talking-head videos

• Music videos and commercial shoots

• Headshots and promotional content

Upstairs in the loft, known as The Nest is where our podcast and audio production truly shines. This space was engineered specifically for recording clean, broadcast-quality sound.

The elevated loft includes:

• A seven-layer, sound-isolated floor designed for superior low-end control

• Moveable sound-deadening walls that adapt into vocal booths or multi-mic podcast layouts

• Flexible configurations for solo podcasts, co-hosted shows, panels, and remote interviews

Whether you’re recording your first episode or producing a weekly show with video and distribution in mind, Black Owl is built to scale with you.

A Creative Community, Not Just a Studio
