Our featured services

Bespoke Production & Service
We cater for all budget ranges. For smaller projects/budgets, we can arrange 1, 2 or 3 person crews to cover a simple shoot... for larger scale projects with bigger budgets, we can organise full crews from the top down.

Whether large or small, with our vast international network of Writers, Producers, Directors, HODs and below-the-line crew, we can assemble the perfect team to suit your project's style and content.

We can get involved at the development/conceptual/ideation stage, to help you crystalise your needs into a strong creative brief, or take an existing concept and realise it on screen in the best possible way.

Our fully dynamic and bespoke production approach adapts entirely to your needs, on a job-by-job basis.

And if you're based outside the UK and need a service company to manage a UK/European shoot, we can assemble the perfect team to provide a seamless extension to your production.

Branded & Social Content: Serious Social
Serious Social is the corner of Serious Glass dedicated to creating the very best branded and social content.

From web-based content (Promotional, Training, Product-based, Instructional, Corporate, etc.) to short social media videos (for TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, X, etc.) and including digital design elements, we can help you create the perfect brand message, as a standalone piece or part of a campaign or regularly-updated content.

Whether it’s product-based, or tailored to you and your services, we’ll work with you to produce content that stands out from the competition and connects directly with your audience, from concept to delivery.

We can also arrange ‘content days’, in which we spend a day with you creating all your social content for the upcoming period (eg. 90 days). With four ‘content days’ annually, all your social content for the year is taken care of!

We cater to all budget ranges, and can travel anywhere to film/create exactly the content you need.

The screenplay is really well written. It's the kind of film with heart and ideas that I don't see very often.
