ABOUT US

Based in Old Street, London, we are a team of strategists, creatives, filmmakers and digital marketers. We are passionate about helping brands harness the power of video to share their message with the world.

We now live in a digital age where online video offers an amazing opportunity for businesses to connect with their customers. Improved technology from broadband to cameras, means video is now accessible to anyone.

But the barrier-to-entry for video providers has also dropped and businesses are now faced with a minefield of choice from recent graduates to big agencies. Too often a lack of experience is leading to disappointing results and just more white noise.

In 2016 ex BBC Producer / Director George Hughes saw an opportunity to bring 14 years of television experience and techniques to bear on this problem. He founded Small Films with a simple, yet powerful purpose – help brands stand out in the online space with reliable, effective video that’s powered by exceptional storytelling.

HERE’S WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY ABOUT US

“It has been an absolute pleasure working with Small Films to produce our school video for Moulsford. They worked very hard to respond to our brief and were extremely helpful with creative input and suggestions to produce something truly unique. There is no doubt that families have chosen to visit us as a direct result of seeing the video.”

Sarah Beardmore-Gray, Moulsford School

“Working with Small Films on our Indiegogo crowdfunding video has been an absolute dream. They had killer ideas, executed them brilliantly and supported us with optimization and AB testing – which all resulted in a video that has raised $1.5million and counting. It also won the Crowdfunding Video Awards for 2017 among over 100 competitors. The view count for the video is over 20million now on Facebook and rising. Couldn’t recommend Small Films enough!”

James Day, Co-Founder, Mous

“We came to Small Films with a quick turnaround brief and they worked with energy, creativity and passion to deliver what we wanted. They were so much fun to work with and really helped us take the first leap into video marketing, helping us learn throughout the process and translate all the metrics into something meaningful for our brand. If you’re a growing food brand looking to integrate video into your marketing plans, I would highly recommend.”

Charlotte Green, Head of Marketing, Pots & Co

“THIS IS BRILLIANT. Thanks you so much. Couldn’t have wanted more from this! I’m delighted. Thank you again for this utter brilliance. ”

Rosie Gordon-Lennox, Marketing Manager, Rude Health
