Green Thumb Media
What we do

End to end, on purpose.

We handle every stage of a film, from the first conversation to final delivery. Strategy, pre-production, production, post, animation, and delivery. All in-house, so the pipeline does not leak and the thinking does not get diluted.

/ 01

Creative & strategy

We start every project by asking what you are actually trying to say. We read the brief. We research the audience. We interview the people inside your organisation who know the story better than we do. Then we write it down, debate it, and give you a single sentence we think the film should be.

  • Brief analysis and discovery
  • Story research and talent interviews
  • Creative concept development
  • Scriptwriting and narrative structure
  • Treatments and pitch decks
  • Tone, style, and visual reference
/ 02

Pre-production

The part nobody sees. Schedules, scouts, crew, casting, permits, gear, wardrobe. We build the plan that lets the shoot day run on instinct rather than panic.

  • Storyboards and shot lists
  • Location scouting and permits
  • Casting and talent liaison
  • Crew hiring and coordination
  • Production design and art direction
  • Budgeting and scheduling
/ 03

Production

Filmmaking with a journalism background. Calm sets, careful direction, patient cinematography. We hold a frame long enough for something true to happen in it.

  • Directing and creative direction
  • Cinematography and lighting
  • Drone and aerial work
  • Interview-based documentary production
  • Commercial, brand, and campaign filming
  • Multi-camera event and live capture
/ 04

Post-production

Offline, online, colour, sound, motion, delivery. We edit the way we shoot: patiently, without fetishising our own cuts.

  • Editing and assembly
  • Colour grading and finishing
  • Sound design, foley, and final mix
  • VFX, compositing, and cleanup
  • Music supervision and sourcing
  • Subtitles, captions, and accessibility
/ 05

Animation & motion

When the idea cannot be photographed, we draw it. 2D, 3D, motion, titles, illustration, type. Built to match the rest of the film's craft.

  • 2D animation and motion graphics
  • Character and illustration-led work
  • Explainer and educational animation
  • Title design and typography
  • Infographics and data visualisation
/ 06

Delivery & distribution

We deliver in the formats your media plan actually needs. TVC specs, social cuts, vertical, closed captions, broadcast, VOD. Tested on real platforms, not guessed.

  • Master files in any format
  • Platform-specific cuts for broadcast, web, social
  • Compliance and regulatory approvals
  • Versioning and localisation
  • QC, sign-off, and archive
