OUR STORY
LEARN ABOUT OUR VISION AND THE HISTORIC BUILDING THAT BECAME HELLCAT HANGAR
Founded by a local, tech-savvy father and son duo, the idea behind Hellcat Hangar far preceded its official establishment in 2020. Operating with limited space, David and Ben formed Hellcat Production––Hellcat Hangar’s precursor and sister company and provided clients with video creation, editing, and production services. However, their sight was always on opening a community-oriented production studio to accommodate Pensacola’s growing workforce of talented individuals.
Since their vision required a large amount of floor space and operating room, their dilemma was securing a location large enough to facilitate their full-scale plan. Fortunately, they crossed paths with an available quonset hut-style building that was originally built as a military hangar. And after grinding through several months of renovations, David and Ben transformed their new space into the production studio they envisioned The Hellcat Hangar.
But let’s not just sweep past this building’s interesting past and let it go unnoticed . . .
This historic military hangar was first used to warehouse Naval Planes when it was built. She––our building––faithfully stood by throughout the years and watched the Pensacola area grow and thrive. She has served a number of roles to the local community, operating most recently as an Army surplus store, and a makeshift movie theatre before that. It is thrilling that she has found new life as The Hellcat Hangar, and her transformation into a production studio will allow her to continue serving the people in this community for years to come.

Yes, you can! The main perk of the Hangar is the space. Equipment is available as scheduled, but not necessary if you have your own equipment and just need the space.
