Giggster

Giggster is the online marketplace connecting film productions, photo shoots, and commercial projects with unique locations for rent across major cities in North America and beyond. For location scouts, producers, and directors who need to find the right space quickly and book it without the friction of traditional location scouting, Giggster offers a searchable inventory of thousands of properties including residential homes, warehouses, rooftop spaces, industrial facilities, soundstages, and outdoor environments.

The platform covers a wide range of production needs. Productions looking for a contemporary home interior in Los Angeles, a converted warehouse in New York, a historic building exterior in Chicago, or a scenic outdoor location in any major market can browse Giggster's listings with the same ease as booking a hotel room. Properties are listed with detailed specifications, high-quality photos, available amenities, minimum booking hours, and transparent hourly or daily rates, giving production teams the information they need to evaluate a location without an in-person scout for every candidate.

Giggster addresses one of the consistent pain points in location work: the gap between finding a location that looks right and completing a booking that is actually confirmed and ready for production. The platform handles the contractual and payment infrastructure, provides optional damage protection and liability insurance that can be attached to a booking, and offers cancellation policies with defined terms. This reduces the administrative burden on production teams and gives location managers a defensible paper trail for every booking.

For independent productions with lean teams, Giggster compresses what would traditionally require a dedicated location department into a process that one coordinator can manage. For larger productions, it provides a fast first-pass for location research before committing scout time to in-person visits, narrowing the candidate list efficiently.

Film studio rental rates on Giggster start from around $18 per hour for basic spaces, with a wide range of options at different price points to fit productions from micro-budget short films to commercial productions with larger budgets. The 5% discount available to Saturation cardholders applies directly to booking costs, which adds up meaningfully over the course of a production with multiple location days.
