Case Study: Twycross Zoo Easter TVC
As a part of our ongoing work with Twycross Zoo we developed, shot, and delivered a full-scale TV commercial for the zoo’s Easter campaign. This included scripting, casting, VO recording, music licensing, and Clearcast delivery — all turned around on a tight timeline.
The comments and reviews are mind blowing. The content is amazing, but to then show it with such an amazing film takes it a new level. Honestly thank you and great work! – Craig Dunkerly , Cheif Executive Officer at Twycross Zoo

With a background in both branded storytelling and documentary film, Ollie’s directed everything from national campaigns for household names to punchy startup spots — always with the same attention to story, tone, and visual impact.
Whether you’re coming to us with a clear creative or starting from a blank page, Ollie helps shape ideas into something cinematic, strategic, and made to move.

An Award-Winning Studio
We were recently Highly Commended at The Drum Awards for our commercial work — a proud moment for a small team built around strong ideas and good storytelling.
Alongside that, a few of our films have picked up laurels at festivals, but what matters most is making work that feels honest, looks great, and delivers for our clients.

We can handle clearcast so you don’t have to. If you’re new to broadcast advertising in the UK, here’s the headline: You can’t air your commercial without Clearcast approval. They review every script and final edit to ensure it meets UK advertising standards.
We can manage the Clearcast process from day one:

This means:

Whether it’s your first commercial or your fiftieth, we make sure everything’s compliant — and ready to air.
