Best TV & Film Communications Agency – EMEA

Our work

We develop unique narratives that connect audiences with human interest stories in meaningful ways. We deliver the storytelling through media outlets, television broadcaster networks and streaming platforms. For our high-production value storytelling our primary focus is on history, human interest documentary, science, current affairs, formats and lifestyle. We enable the development of Intellectual Property, and storytelling through ideation, and the integration of behaviours, narrative, and environments.

Our storytelling experience stems from our work across industry sectors for SMEs, corporates, start-ups, and non-profit organisations. We bring audiences closer than ever before to unexplored worlds. We do this in collaboration with emerging and established talent to bring a story to life through its characters.

We have pioneered a range of creative tools, techniques and strategic processes that have benefited our clients. We believe that growth is achieved when an organisation has a clear strategy and delivers exceptional storytelling. We do both, through a combination of strategy, creativity, and narrative development that helps drive growth for our clients.

We have delivered World Premiere Communications for the Asian World Premiere with talent attached from Oscar-winning films in Cannes during Marché International des Programmes de Communication, International Market of Communications Programmes at the world-famous The Palais des Festivals et des Congrès.

Our clients include international broadcasters and production companies, individuals, political parties, financial services organisations, and food & beverage clients as well as organisations in the charity sector. Delivering international media relations and publicity for The Polish Forces Memorial project unveiled by HRH The Duke of Kent, KG at the National Memorial Arboretum was one of the highlights of our ongoing output.

Our founder, Teresa Potocka, has been instrumental in organising high-profile ministerial events at the Palace of Westminster, Europe House, Canning House, at The Polish Institute and Sikorski Museum including a high-profile event at The Carlton Club in honour of Margaret Thatcher which the Iron Lady attended herself.

Our team

Our team has over 100 years of combined marketing, public relations, brand management and narrative-driven storytelling experience. With talent from broadcast media, communications and production, our expertise extends to corporate narrative development, government PR, and promoting technology related products and services.

Our unique approach originates in the black swan effect, inspired by the assumption at one time that all swans were white, before a black variety was found in the wild. The theory of black swan events is a metaphor that describes an event that comes as a surprise, has a major effect, and is often inappropriately rationalised after the fact with the benefit of hindsight. The term is based on an ancient Roman saying expressing the European presumption that black swans did not exist until Dutch mariners saw them in Australia in 1697, and the term was then reinterpreted to mean an unforeseen and consequential event.

Our understanding of a variety of ecosystems comes from our experience of working with organisations across all sectors. Our sector knowledge enables us to offer timely expert counsel to our clients. Our work goes beyond awareness to deliver true behavioural change from your audiences. By consistently creating relevant and valuable and insightful content across media outlets, we drive profitable customer action. Our methodology results in brands making better real-time decisions leading to reduced time-to-market.
