OUR STORY
About Us
50 Pictures is a team of TV professionals who spent years thinking that the secret to great content was the best kit, the biggest budgets, and a famous face or two.

We were wrong.
You don't earn attention by being the loudest, the most famous, or the one who splashes the most cash.

You earn it by telling remarkable stories that solve problems and help people - and even the occasional horse - make sense of things.
Our Team
At the heart of 50 Pictures is a core team that believes that marketing should never feel like marketing - it should feel like a Damn Good Story. So we bring decades of story-finding experience and storytelling expertise - for the BBC, Netflix, CNN, ITV, Channel 4, Channel 5, ZDF, ARTE, and National Geographic - to every project.

Around us is a wider family of trusted freelancers - a nimble, hand-picked crew - with specialist research, production, and post-production skills. We're all dedicated to telling Damn Good Stories - knowing that the best stories are found in real life.
