Should we

work

together?

In short, yes!

From quick, thumb-stopping social content to paid ads, retention videos with tailored CTAs, and integrated campaigns for cold or warm audiences, our films are built to perform across channels

Whether it’s social impact work with Refugee organisations like Praxis, documentary, or corporate campaigns across fashion, beauty, pop-ups and awards events, we understand what works to get content seen: and conversations started

 

We bring narrative arcs to life, condensing stories into 30-90 second films that hit key SEO points while keeping personal perspectives, as we’ve done for Omaze, or creating longer-form documentary-style content for web

Every story, short or long, is crafted to connect with audiences and drive engagement

With extensive experience across both not-for-profit and corporate clients, we’re one to work with

A word from our founder

Built Different was born from my passion for creating video that drives real results and meaningful change. Founded with a strong social conscience, I set up Built Different Media to champion equality and tells stories that matter, placing video at the heart of campaigns to spark conversation, boost engagement, and increase conversions for organisations I that truely care about

This has shaped my journey over the past 15 years. I value the diversity of both my clients and collaborators, and my enthusiasm for building talented teams has taken me from small, social-impact projects to large-scale productions with clients like Omaze and Twinings Tea, alongside corporate campaigns across major brands, beauty, and live events. I couldn’t be more grateful. Bring on 2026!
