Here’s our company story.

It all began in 2014. Our founder, York Woodford-Smith, launched a multi-disciplinary agency providing film, websites, and photography for small businesses. When Chris Harper joined 6 months later, we discovered a shared passion for making video, and dedicated the next 12 years to building our reputation as a stand-out video production company.

We’ve worked with a diverse range of clients, from local breweries to FTSE companies. During the pandemic, we focused on the incredible work of our nation’s care providers.
Now, we’re a full-service video marketing agency, helping SMEs to increase sales, communicate clearly, and get the most from their marketing spend.

Our talented team of 5 have the skills and experience to build websites,
launch marketing campaigns, create engaging content, and design social
media strategies that turn followers into fans.

As for our name (we know you’re dying to ask), York was inspired by
his travels through Asia, where he often saw 5 people riding together
on one bike. Impressive, efficient, memorable, and collaborative,
just like our team.
