Previous Client Experience
Life at Samphire / Beyond the Edit
Creating great work also means making time to come together beyond the day‑to‑day. At Samphire Films, shared experiences away from the office and edit suite help strengthen relationships, build trust, and nurture a culture where people feel connected and supported. Whether it’s a team meal, a night out, or a chance to properly switch off together, these moments are an important part of how we work, and who we are.
What we're up to
Samphire Films is currently in production and development on multiple premium documentary projects and large‑scale factual formats for major UK and US networks, and global streaming platforms. We can’t wait for you to see what we’ve been working on.
Samphire Films is proud to be accredited by the industry's leading professional body. Our memberships reflect our commitment to excellence, integrity, and the highest standards of independent production.
