Research Focused

Research is at the heart of what we do. We work to grasp the key ideas and objectives behind your research so we can effectively identify the content and narrative elements that will form the building blocks of a compelling final film.

Our Approach

The Right Format

Films can vary from a punchy two-minute video tailor-made for social media to a compelling feature-length documentary for the big screen. We work with you to decide the best final format for your research impact goals.

Documentary Quality

Our background lies in broadcast documentary with multiple credits for the BBC and Sky, as well as other national and international institutions. So we're used to transforming complex ideas into films with the widest possible appeal.

Transforming Impact

With REF 2029 approaching, we understand the importance of evidencing the impact of your research. And that’s where we believe film can play an effective role, both by documenting impact and by effecting impact through engaging and informative storytelling.

OUR FORMATS

From academic discourse to government policy, research is all about effecting change. And we believe that film has an important role to play in bringing about that change.
