Stocksund Studios
(Redirected from Metronome Studios)
The Stocksund Studios were film production studios located in Stocksund, a suburb of Sweden.[1] Based in a converted former power station, production began there in 1946 by the independent Imago Film company. In 1953 the complex was taken over by Metronome Film and became known as the Metronome Studios, until it was damaged by a fire in 1961. It subsequently passed into the hands of Svensk Filmindustri[2] and from 1964 television productions began shooting there. It was also used for radio by the Swedish Educational Broadcasting Company and music recordings. Today the site houses the Marina läroverket, a school.[3]
