AuthorNorthern Beaches Local StudiesDateMarch 2025DescriptionArtransa Studios opened on a 20 acre site on the corner of Warringah Road and the Wakehurst Parkway, in the late 1950s with production beginning in November 1956. Established just as Australia was on the cusp of the television era, the site was equipped to meet world standards for television and radio production. The studios quickly became the most advanced of their kind in the Southern Hemisphere, and the first purpose-built film studio in Australia. Sets for film production were built in the bushland surrounding Belrose, Oxford falls and Frenchs ForestSubjectsTelevisionFilmingRadio stationsCamerasAdvertisingKeywordsCommunications
