This study analyzes organizational models of international film studio complexes as a distinct type of architectural and urban-planning facility within the creative industries, providing a full cycle of audiovisual production. The relevance of the research is driven by the growth of film production and the competition among territories to attract projects. Existing approaches more often focus on economic and geographical aspects and do not sufficiently address spatial and planning solutions. This creates a need to systematize the territorial organization of film studio complexes and to substantiate design principles that reconcile requirements for technological enclosure with the tasks of integration into the urban environment. A comparative analysis of existing film studio complexes is carried out to identify the key parameters of such facilities. A typology comprising three models is proposed: the production precinct, the cinema city, and the media city. These types reflect differences in functional structure and in the nature of interactions with the urban environment.
