We are Green Lions, an award-winning production company creating exciting content for TV, cinema and digital media. We believe in the power of storytelling and are passionate filmmakers.

We are named after our first film LIONS ARE GREEN, the story of a colour-blind boy with a unique perspective on the world.  We strive to bring such perspective to every project we undertake. Our recent feature documentary, ERASING DAVID (Channel 4) has been an international hit and is currently playing in cinemas, on TV and at film festivals around the world.

Since 2005 we have worked with a wide range of clients from all over the world:  broadcasters to brands and charities. We work with the brightest filmmaking talent to deliver touching, emotional, engaging content.

We believe that communication has changed.  Films that tell personal, human stories are now the most effective way to emotionally connect with audiences.  This is true whether you are a broadcaster or a brand.

Our films entertain as well as inform.

Our clients include the BBC, Channel 4, Current TV, Mother, WCRS, Greenpeace, Ernst & Young, SAS Design, Bentley, Fallon, Bloomsbury, ArcelorMittal, Philips Electronics, Western Union, Goldman Sachs, Credit Agricole, Slaughter and May, Thomson Reuters, Cancer Research UK, Weapon7, and Hachette.

We love documentary. We love film.  We love to tell stories.

Please contact us if you’d like to hear how we’d tell your story.

We made this film for Bupa’s annual Foundation dinner, to showcase just some of the great achievements and activities within Bupa.

One Club, Two Clubhouses
A film to showcase the two magnificent clubhouses of the Royal Automobile Club.

This is a short teaser, produced in advance of our feature documentary due to compete in 2012. Filmmaker David Bond grew up in the countryside but now lives in the city. He is stuck in the digital world. During a rare countryside trip he noticed a huge change in his family. They stopped worrying – about emails, about clothes and about TV – and looked happy. Are they deprived of nature? Do they have Nature Deficit Disorder? Leaving his anxious life behind, David goes searching for people living in harmony with their environment. His encounters shed light on our relationship with our environment, and he discovers what we can do to get back to the bosom of Mother Nature.

We spent three days with 3,000 managers at Ernst & Young at a conference in Amsterdam and created a series of films about the various benefits to growing your career within a massive, forward thinking, global organisation.

In 2011 we created a series of short documentaries, following the stories of 12 bright interns at Ernst & Young. We filmed them in their home country and then followed them to the Global intern conference in Orlando Florida. And reminded ourselves that we’re never too old for rollercoasters!

We made this film for SalterBaxter as part of their 2011 Directions publication. It was picked up by Guardian Sustainable Business for their Talk Point series and featured on their home page. It has been really well received and generated significant commentary.

Ernst & Young hosted a leadership training conference for its graduates. This is one in a series of films we made about training they provide to students.

This is a 5 minute version of a 22 minute programme on CurrentTV about the Puma:Creative Impact Awards. An award that celebrates the documentaries that have had the most impact on the world. You can watch the full version below.

We were asked by Puma to create a 5 minute film about the Puma:Creative Impact Award. An award that celebrates the documentaries that have had the most impact on the world. We also made a 22 minute programme for CurrentTV, called Documentaries that changed the world. You can watch the programme here.
