Pacific Bay Resort Studios & Village
Pacific Bay Resort Studios & Village will be the first fully integrated feature film production and post-production complex in Australia. Merging advanced virtual studios and sound stages with accommodation and lifestyle facilities. All located on 100 spectacular acres of the Pacific Bay Resort.
Russell Crowe, Peter Montgomery and Keith Rodger plan to create a studio complex of the highest international standard, offering cast and crew a premium lifestyle with the latest virtual production technology, while ensuring Coffs Harbour and Australia benefit from delivering targeted on-campus career training supported by tertiary educational institutions such as the Australian Film Television and Radio School (AFTRS) to help meet the current skills gap.
Pacific Bay Resort, NSW’s largest existing beachfront resort, currently sits on 100 immaculately garden landscaped coastal acres with future expansion potential for the proposed studio and village facilities. The resort boasts a luxury apartment complex / hotel, nine-hole golf course, three swimming pools, tennis courts, restaurant and bars, extensive events and conference centre, resort spa and gym, as well as the National Marine Science Centre.
Coffs Harbour’s internationally capable airport is only eight minutes’ drive from the proposed studio and village and combines with the adjoining M1 national highway for rapid access to major cities. A nearby Leading Edge Data Centres facility will provide 400GB fibre links to their Tier III data centre providing unparalleled data speeds and near-zero latency for real-time remote film production.
