Who We Are
Elliot / CINEMATOGRAPHER & FOUNDER
“I founded Lion Island over a decade ago and in that time I’ve had the pleasure of working with some incredible talent and brands across the globe. All these years later, I still have that drive to deliver my best on every project. Maybe it’s finding that perfect light, an incredible location, or collaborating with great people, each shoot we work on feels special.”
Arthur / Editor
Arthur is not just your average editing wizard; he brings a wholly unique perspective to every project. With a passion for gaming and his own dedicated YouTube channel for it (Thundershark Gaming), Arthur is also a talented musician (apparently drummers make the best editors), utilising this asset in our projects. His knack for discovering original ways of viewing video and creatively piecing them together makes him an indispensable asset to our team.
CHRIS / Cinematographer
Chris has worked with the team on many projects over the years, so it’s great to bring him into the fray as one of us. Coming from a creative and music background, Chris has been in the video world for years and now is taking a step behind the lens.
FAQs
How much does video production cost?
Every project is unique, so pricing varies depending on your specific requirements, complexity, and the time it will take to achieve your vision. We can work within your budget or provide a customized quote tailored to your needs.
What does the video process involve?
Before even picking up a camera, it all starts with finding out what you’re looking for. We’ll get to understand your wants and needs, offer some ideas/inspiration or put your vision to work. On the day there will be a little bit of prep time (camera setup plus any extras needed) and then it’s straight to it! From there we’ll retreat to our editing suite to craft a narrative of our filming and produce an amazing video for you!
Are you able to travel?
Absolutely! Whether you're here in the UK like us, or want us to hop on a plane and join you abroad, we're up for the adventure. Travel fees may apply, but we'll chat about it beforehand.
DO you have a studio?
Most of our shoots tend to be on location or with a specific spot in mind, but we have connections and relationships with several studios in Gloucestershire and the surrounding areas if you need a space to shoot in.
Why should I book you?
We get it, there are plenty of filmmakers out there, so we really appreciate you finding us! We believe two things set us apart: our creative background we bring to cinematography, and the meaningful relationships we foster with everyone on set.
We always go the extra mile to build a genuine rapport with clients, talent and crew. We want to understand you on a personal level, grasp your unique vision, and bring it to life in the most incredible way possible. For us, it's not just about capturing stunning visuals; it's about creating an experience that exceeds your expectations and leaves a lasting impression.
So, if you're looking for a team that combines artistic expertise with a personal touch, we're here to make your vision shine. Let's collaborate and create something truly extraordinary together!
Can we meet beforehand to discuss ideas, details or ask more questions?
Of course! Whether its a coffee to go over ideas (spoiler alert: we love coffee) or a video/phone call, we’re happy to chat about what you’re looking for. In fact we encourage speaking outside of emails where possible so you can express in person what it is you want, providing us with a more personal insight into your vision.
when can we get started!?
To get the ball rolling, simply drop us a message using the form above or send an email to elliot@lionisland.co.uk. We're eager to hear from you and begin working together on your project!
