sound stage

Indoor movie set

A sound stage is a large, enclosed building designed for film or television production.

The space is soundproofed to block outside noise and built without internal supports, allowing flexible arrangement of sets, lighting, and camera equipment.

Major studios maintain multiple sound stages for simultaneous productions: They're shooting the courtroom scenes on sound stage four.
