Scandinavian development

The modern Norwegian operating entity was established in 2005, bringing together film-studio and post-production heritage with equipment-rental capability. The Storyline Studios name has been used by the Norwegian entity since 2009. In 2018, Norwegian, Danish and Swedish businesses united under the Storyline Studios brand, consolidating complementary rental, studio and post-production operations.

The Danish business originated as Red Rental in 2008 and added the ACT3 post-production branch in 2015. Swedish operations include roots in Gothenburg's Camera Center & Light Center, while the Stockholm operation joined the group in December 2024 following the integration of Dagsljus Group.

Selected credited productions include Sentimental Value, The Battle of Oslo, Secrets We Keep, Ibelin, The Innocents, Ragnarok, Occupied, Skam, The Wave, Kon-Tiki and Headhunters.
