Purposeful films, made possible

We create high end filmed content for broadcast and brands, and we know the most impactful content is often the most difficult to make.

So we’ve become experts in embracing the biggest and most complex production challenges.

Our decades of experience at the BBC and beyond mean we can handle every creative, technical and logistical aspect – from start to finish.

Want to film in multiple or unusual places?

With our in-house team and network of specialists, we can put together the perfect crew, kit and plan. From planning and directing 5 days of filming in 4 different countries to live streaming an arts projection from the ramparts of The Tower of London, we’ve made it look amazing … and effortless.

Got a complicated message for diverse audiences?

Whether it’s a TV-style show, film for a multi-layered campaign or a series of animations, we’ll keep it simple, relatable and fresh. And we’ll find ways to use your footage in various ways to give you the most value.

Want to connect with audiences on multiple platforms?

From YouTube to Instagram, BBC to Sky Arts we know one size does not fit all. We know that content needs to be platform specific and not just resized and repackaged, so we plan your content with you to ensure it is fit for purpose and on brand.

We’re a small, friendly team, here to make good things happen with film that moves people.

So you can trust us and our methods to put your ideas into motion.

The core team at Method comprises of Managing Director Leanne Tattum, Creative Director Matt Taylor and Community Manager Jen Sandford. Our team of associate camera operators, directors of photography, animation director and colourist help us to fulfil every brief we take on, big or small, local or international.

Meet The Team

Leanne Tattum

Managing Director

After a decade at the BBC there isn’t much Leanne doesn’t know about video production. She’s worked across most genres of programming, from daytime television to current affairs, and has produced flagship shows and award-winning documentaries for BBC 2 and BBC 4. Leanne now oversees pre-production and project manages most of Method’s output, indulging in her LOVE of spreadsheets!

When she has a spare moment off from being 'Mum's taxi' Leanne will be at the theatre or pouring over a 1000 piece jigsaw with a glass of wine.

Thomas Wagstaff

Editor

Tom started his career as a freelance videographer and editor, and over the past decade, he’s honed his craft to become a true force in the industry. From interviewing legends like Black Sabbath to shaping compelling documentaries for Sky Arts, Tom has a knack for creating content that captivates. At Method, his talent continues to elevate our editorial output, bringing fresh ideas and polished storytelling to every project.

Tom’s creativity doesn’t stop at the editing suite. Off duty, he steps into the spotlight as the lead singer of post-hardcore band As Living Arrows, proving there’s no limit to his creative energy.

Matt Taylor

Creative Director

Matt has spent a career in film and video. Editor, director, film maker, he worked for over 10 years at the BBC on titles such as Coast and Countryfile and The Gadget Show. Matt particularly enjoys the challenge of live shoots and getting creative with project briefs from clients.

When Matt’s not working it’s all about the tunes! Going to gigs, putting on gigs and trying to impress (bore) people with his encyclopaedic knowledge of 80/90s indie and techno.

Jen Sandford

Community Manager

Jen worked in Birmingham’s indie TV industry, producing Broadcast Factual Entertainment programmes, for many years. She now manages Method’s social media, writing and producing content across all of the Method in Motion social channels. And this book, George Orwell’s Nineteen eighty-four, pretty much changed the world for her. In 1984!
