About Us

Films That Make People Feel

In a world of constant information, being seen and heard is vital. Branded films are a great way to cut through the noise.

As humans, we connect with real people, stories and experiences. Film is a great way to capture the attitude, culture and personality of your business. They’re a powerful way to make an emotional connection with your audience and build trust in their mind.

We’re big believers in using beautifully shot branded films to help Brilliant businesses tell their stories. Our founder, Sam has been making films since he was eleven and its his simple and sharp aesthetic and keen eye for detail that has defined our creative approach. Beyond the technical aspects of our craft, people are our passion. It’s our curiosity around who they are and what they do that gives us a spring in our step.

It’s simple. We make fabulous films for good people doing great work.

Our Story

In establishing Oatey Media in 2011, Sam brought together his lifelong fascination and experience as a film-maker, with a bred-in-the-bone entrepreneurial spirit.

His first video camera had been a free gift that he put to good use, aged 8, filming a showreel of the Royal Cornwall Show (now rather happily one of Oatey Media’s clients). Growing up on his family’s farm in Cornwall, surrounded by enterprises that had grown out of the core agricultural activity, he made his mark early, successfully promoting those businesses via film.

Today, with the support of a trusted network of creative partners, marketing professionals and creatives, Oatey Media produces video content for clients in a number of sectors, from manufacturing to lifestyle, SMEs to some of the UK’s most prolific organisations.
