We tell powerful stories about people with passion and purpose.
From milestone events to feature documentaries and social campaigns across multiple platforms. Creating emotional connections between brands and communities with shared values. Exploring human nature and amplifying voices that need to be heard. An agile social-first production team with no egos, collaborating with organisations that want to do better. Educating, inspiring and entertaining audiences, changing perceptions and igniting change.
Like most good ideas, Clockwise was formed in a sweaty nightclub in Bristol— just three mates with big dreams and bags of energy. It was before cameras on smartphones or strategies on social media, but we knew the raw atmosphere inside these clubs needed to be documented. Better yet, let’s burn the content to DVD and distribute it around the city.Â
DVDs died off but YouTube was growing rapidly and our first upload made the homepage, becoming an overnight success. This opened up more opportunities with larger artists and brands. Electronic music was thriving, with high demand for music videos, documentaries, and promo films globally. Lots of late nights, air miles and cultural connections were made.
High-energy filmmaking with complementary skills in production and creativity helped the business thrive. Keen to explore other industries, we followed our instincts and expanded into sports and fashion, scaling our team and boosting production. One thing never changed though – our passion for people and human nature stories, from artists to athletes, designers and leaders.Â
Fast forward a decade and we have been privileged to work with a wide range of clients, from L’Oréal to Chelsea FC. With decades of combined experience under our belts, we’re on a new mission – to collaborate with partners that want to do better, and tell stories that change the world.Â
