Our Story

Round Rock Studio was built around a simple idea: creative people deserve a great place to bring their ideas to life.

Founded in 2022 after outgrowing a much smaller space, the studio was created to be a playground for anyone with a camera and an idea. A place to experiment, collaborate, try something new, and create work you’re proud of.

Since then, we’ve never stopped improving it. We continually refine the space, add new tools, and rethink the little details that make a shoot better. We take pride in every part of the studio and want each person who walks through the doors to feel like they have everything they need to create something great.

Along the way, we’ve had the privilege of playing a small part in some incredible productions, projects, businesses, and creative ideas. Even better, we’ve met some pretty amazing people while doing it. And we’re just getting started.

20+ years of production experience

Meet The Founder

Brent Pierce fell in love with video production in high school and has spent more than 20 years pursuing the craft ever since. Before picking up a camera, he was a drummer, eventually studying both video production and music at South Plains College. That combination of creativity, technology, and storytelling has shaped his career ever since.

Looking back, the fascination with cameras may have started even earlier. Brent’s grandfather always seemed to have a video camera running during family holidays, capturing ordinary moments that would eventually become irreplaceable memories. That same desire to capture moments and tell stories continues to drive his work today.

Over the years, a camera has taken Brent to incredible places, introduced him to amazing people, and given him the opportunity to build a career doing something he genuinely loves. But the role he values most is at home. Brent and his wife are raising two incredible sons, adopted together as brothers, and his family remains the thing he is most proud of.

Round Rock Studio is an extension of that journey. Brent’s goal is to use what he’s learned to create opportunities for other people, to give creators a place to pursue their ideas, develop their craft, tell meaningful stories, and build a life around the work they feel called to do.

Meet The Studio Manager

Taylor Juarez has been part of Round Rock Studio from day one and has played an instrumental role in turning it into what it is today. She keeps the processes, logistics, and behind-the-scenes details moving so the studio can deliver the experience our clients and members expect.

A graduate of St. Edward’s University, Taylor brings organization, problem-solving, and a sharp eye for the details that keep everything running smoothly. A lot happens behind the scenes at Round Rock Studio, and there’s a 100% chance Taylor had something to do with it.

Round Rock Studio - Studio Manager Taylor Juarez

“Good habits create good art. The way we do anything is the way we do everything. Treat each choice you make, each action you take, each word you speak with skillful care. The goal is to live your life in the service of art.”

― Rick Rubin

Events

Education has always been an important part of the vision for Round Rock Studio. We believe a creative space should be more than a place to work. It should be a place to learn, experiment, meet other creators, and get better at your craft.

Over the years, we’ve hosted workshops covering portrait, automotive, sports, and fashion photography, along with cinematography, lighting, video editing, and other areas of content creation. We’ve even turned the studio into a classroom for a multi-day Teen Filmmakers Camp, giving the next generation of creators a chance to experience filmmaking firsthand.

Sharing what we’ve learned and watching other creators grow is one of the most rewarding things we get to do at Round Rock Studio.

I was in town for a conference and scheduled a podcast session. Round Rock Studio made it so easy. We walked in, and they were ready to go, even with our logo in the background. Within a few hours, we had our creative and it was top-notch. I highly recommend them.

Honestly my favorite studio in the Austin area for use of a Cyc Wall. The lighting setup is great and the Cyc Wall coverage is more than sufficient. The Ipad screen to change all light settings is great because I can keep record of all light settings for consistency next time I'm in the studio. The crew there is always helpful and great communicators if I need a quick change or to rent a few box lights at last minute.

First off, we love Round Rock Studio. Beautiful facility, all the things you need. I took the DaVinci Resolve 101 Workshop, and it was perfect for me. Long time photographer and video editor here, but I need to move to Resolve for a number of reasons. This is a bootstrap course that clarifies many things that I have not, until now, understood: screen layout, workspace management, a starting point for workflow. It was also an opportunity to do exactly what I tell other people: if you don't know where to start, take an entry-level class so you can ask questions of a real person. A few simple things during the first 45 minutes caught me out, but our instructor got me right back on track. I was able to draw parallels between Resolve and my experience with another NLE, leading to many "oh!" moments. The provided sample project was very well put together, enabling us all to be exposed to the fundamental elements needed to get started with any project. Techniques were illustrated in ways that made sense, and that will apply going forward. Highly recommended.
