Instant Star is filmed in Toronto, Canada. It is produced by Epitome Pictures Inc. in conjunction with our Canadian broadcaster, CTV. The website, www.instantstar.com, is also produced in Toronto by Epitome Pictures and Snap Media. The show is mainly filmed in the Epitome Pictures studios, a former warehouse that has been converted to look like a music recording studio. The studio also houses the interiors of some of the characters’ homes, and a school. As a result, the majority of Instant Star is filmed inside one large studio. However, we do occasionally take the production “on location” to various places around Toronto that are impossible to re-create in a studio.
