Brand Films – UK and worldwide
Branded Film Production
From a global campaign shot on 35mm across four countries to a two-person crew filming a customer story in a working restaurant for a global payment system. We make brand films for companies that want to be believed: wealth managers, AI firms, retailers, care homes, and a Cornish gallery on its first night on ITV. One team, brief to delivery, and the people who answer your email are the people on set.
A four-country 35mm brand campaign for Cohere. Brand and corporate films for AlTi Tiedemann Global across London and New York, one screened at Davos. Seven seasons for FatFace. A first television commercial for Whistlefish, on ITV and Sky. Fifteen branded micro-documentaries for KYN. Customer stories for Toast in London and Vancouver. A centenary documentary for JA Brooks. We make brand films and commercials you believe.
THE WORK
Recent Brand Productions
01 · Brand campaign · 35mm · connected TV
Cohere: AI for Empowerment
An enterprise AI company that wanted a campaign with no technology on screen. Four countries, one shoot day each, shot on 35mm with a director and a full art department, then graded once at Harbor so that roughly 190 assets read as one campaign. Running now on connected TV, out-of-home and social in the US, UK, Canada and Germany.
02 · Brand film · London and New York
AlTi Tiedemann Global: The Purpose of Wealth
A global wealth manager’s flagship brand film, asking what wealth is for. Shot in London and New York with AlTi’s own people on camera rather than actors. Our fifth production for AlTi, in a relationship that began with a corporate brand film and has since put one on a screen at Davos.
03 · TV commercial · ITV and Sky
Whistlefish: a first TV commercial
Whistlefish, the Cornish art and card retailer, had never been on television. We made its first commercial and took it through Clearcast to air on ITV and Sky. Commercials are the most constructed thing we make: scripted, art-directed, shot to the frame. They’re also made by documentary makers, and it shows. Written, but it shouldn’t feel written.
04 · Brand campaign · seven seasons
FatFace: seven national campaigns
Seven national campaigns for FatFace, shot across Tenerife, the Lake District, Cornwall and Dorset. The brief each time: catch the feeling of the weekend the clothes are for. The measure we cared about: did the brand team use the footage beyond the campaign cycle, in stores and on social. They did.

Client Reviews
What Our Clients Say
Don’t just take our word for it. Here’s what the people we’ve worked with have to say.
Here Now Films brought extraordinary creativity and passion to our campaign, helping us shift from an exhibition-led approach to a destination-focused series of films. They handled everything — scripting, filming, editing — with total professionalism and a clear artistic vision that aligned effortlessly with our values. Communication was always smooth, and the team were genuinely a joy to work with. Stakeholders loved the final films, and the entire process felt seamless from start to finish. We couldn’t have asked for a more dedicated or talented team.
Here Now Films delivered an exceptional end-to-end production for our care home group, creating a history film, a six-part ‘Makers of KYN’ series, a resident-led film, and a recruitment film that truly captured the warmth, belonging, and heart of our homes. Their respectful, patient, and considerate approach put residents, families, and staff at ease, resulting in authentic storytelling that resonated deeply. The films achieved our highest-ever click-through rates and significantly boosted engagement across social channels, while earning glowing feedback from our team and partners. Professional, responsive, and a genuine pleasure to work with throughout.
Here Now Films brought our Spring campaign concept to life with exceptional creativity and professionalism. Working with a celebrity family on their farm, they captured authentic, relatable moments that perfectly embodied our ‘Made for Life’ ethos. The team delivered multiple edits across various aspect ratios on time, handled all post-production amends efficiently, and produced content that resonated strongly with our audience across social media and in-store channels. Ollie, Morgan, and Ed were personal, fun, and a joy to work with – down-to-earth people who truly understood our vision. This was our first project together, but it led to six more successful campaigns, and they remain our go-to production partner.
Here Now are professional, creative and a pleasure to work with. The team are well organised, easy to communicate with and delivered an excellent result. Highly recommended.
Working with Here Now Films felt like placing our innovative rainforest restoration trial in the safest possible hands. The team adapted brilliantly to the unpredictability of live fieldwork, quickly responding to changing conditions and capturing the essence of a pioneering conservation project. They delivered a visually compelling mini-documentary that resonated across the sector, helped spark new conversations, and reflected our brand and values perfectly. Efficient, flexible, and incredibly easy to work with — the film exceeded all our expectations.
Brand Video Production FAQs
Common questions
Everything you need to know about working with us. Can’t find what you’re looking for? Get in touch and we’ll be happy to help.
Every project is different, and we’ll always give you an honest assessment of what’s achievable within your budget. Branded documentaries typically start from £15,000 for a single-day shoot with straightforward logistics, scaling up for multi-location, international, or multi-film projects. The key is that we strip away unnecessary overhead, your budget goes on screen, not into layers of account management.
Absolutely. We’re London-based but UK-wide. We’ve shot from the Scottish Highlands to the volcanic landscapes of Tenerife, from New York to the French Alps. Our lean model means we can mobilise quickly without the overhead of a big agency. We also run one of the UK’s fastest-growing crew networks, so if your project needs boots on the ground anywhere, we can make it happen.
Project delivery timelines depend on the format and medium of the production. Simple brand films can take anywhere between 1 week – 5 weeks to produce depending on the length, complexity, number of contributors, etc.
A typical branded documentary takes 6-10 weeks from brief to delivery—roughly 2-3 weeks for creative development, 1-2 days of filming, and 3-4 weeks of post-production. We’ve delivered faster when deadlines demand it (AlTi Global’s Davos premiere, for example, took 2 weeks to edit. ), and we’re always transparent about what’s realistic for your timeline.
We don’t have a marble lobby. We don’t have account managers for our account managers. We’re filmmakers first—Ed and Ollie are involved in every project, and you’ll work directly with the people making your film. That means faster decisions, less dilution of your vision, and more of your budget ending up on screen. We call it “radical value”: cinema-first quality without the bloated agency structure.
Yes. We produce broadcast-ready campaigns managed from Clearcast submission through to delivery. We understand the compliance requirements and technical specifications for TV—and we handle all of it so you don’t have to. Same cinema-first quality, just formatted for broadcast.
We have hubs in London, Manchester, Bristol and Cornwall, giving us access to both the creative heart of the UK and stunning natural landscapes. But we work nationwide and internationally, from the Scottish Highlands to Uganda, from New York to Finland.
Wherever your story needs to be told, we’ll get there.
