A Filmmaker-Led Production Company Operating Between London and Los Angeles
Beast Films is a Cannes Lions award-winning creative production company in London founded by filmmakers Lawrence Jacomelli and Victoria Taylor. With offices in London and Los Angeles, we create commercials, branded content, films and digital campaigns designed to connect with audiences through emotion, storytelling and visual craft.
Working across the UK, the United States and international markets, Beast Films combines the artistry of filmmaking with the speed, precision and discipline of commercial production — bringing a cinematic approach to every project we undertake.
What began as an independent filmmaker-led studio has evolved into an internationally recognised London video production company known for blending emotional storytelling with strategic creative thinking.
From feature films to global brand campaigns, every project is an opportunity to explore what it means to be human — and communicate that through cinematic storytelling.
Beast Films Established since 2014
Beast Films began in 2011 in Los Angeles, where its earliest work sat at the intersection of fashion, design and branded storytelling. Early projects included films for Tinsel Tokyo magazine alongside commercial work for brands such as IKEA (“Mattress”, 2012) and Adidas (“Lines”, 2013).
In 2014, Beast Films established its main office in London. One of the studio’s earliest commissions came from British audio pioneers Cambridge Audio: a short film exploring the heritage of British sound, shot across London and Brighton. The project later received recognition at the London Brand Film Festival, establishing an early benchmark for Beast Film’s cinematic approach to branded content.
Since then, Beast Films has gone on to create campaigns for global brands including British Airways, DAZN, Liberty Global, Tommy Hilfiger, Swatch, Glenmorangie, while continuing to collaborate with independent organisations and charities such as Brighton Housing Trust — applying the same level of craft, care and cinematic storytelling regardless of scale or budget.
OUR TEAM HAS EXECUTED COMPLEX SHOOTS IN ENVIRONMENTS RANGING FROM REMOTE DESERTS TO MAJOR WORLD CITIES, ALWAYS ON SCHEDULE, ALWAYS ON BUDGET.
Our Story
Beast Films was started in Los Angeles by Victoria Taylor, an award-winning creative director and filmmaker with a background that bridges high fashion, film and advertising. After establishing Beast Los Angeles, she returned to London to open a second office, bringing with her a transatlantic creative energy that combines big-screen ambition with distinctly British narrative craft.
Alongside director and producer Lawrence Jacomelli, Beast Films evolved into a London creative video agency unlike any other — one that merges film craft with brand communication to create emotionally intelligent work for global clients.
The Vision of Victoria Taylor
Before founding Beast Films, Victoria Taylor worked as the right hand to legendary Executive Creative Director Graham Fink at M&C Saatchi, where she contributed to global campaigns — including the British Airways account — during one of the agency’s most creatively fertile eras. She later became Fashion Editor at Tinsel Tokyo Magazine in Los Angeles and launched her own fashion label, known for its expressive visual style and strong female perspective.
Victoria’s creative philosophy is rooted in empathy and truth. Her work centres on human nature — what it means to feel, to struggle, to connect — and her gift lies in transforming those emotions into imagery that feels alive. She brings to Beast a rare blend of conceptual intelligence and visual artistry, crafting work that is as heartfelt as it is cinematic.
A Transatlantic Creative Hub
Beast Films operates between London and Los Angeles, two cities that define the intersection of art, fashion, and film. This dual presence allows us to bridge time zones, cultures and creative markets — collaborating with global brands including Apple, British Airways, DAZN, Liberty Global, Swatch, IKEA, and Zalando.
From feature films to branded content, Beast Films delivers the creative direction of an agency with the visual mastery of a film studio. We call it Cinematic Intelligence — the art of combining emotional depth with commercial clarity.
WE’RE STORYTELLERS FIRST—WHETHER IT’S A CINEMATIC BRAND FILM, A SOCIAL ACTIVATION, A DOCUMENTARY, OR A HIGH-END COMMERCIAL.
Our Ethos: Human, Honest, Cinematic
Every story we tell begins with people — their voices, their perspectives, their truths.
We believe creativity should serve empathy, not ego; connection, not noise.
Our process is rooted in collaboration, curiosity and compassion.
We work across genres and formats, but the principle remains constant:
to create meaningful, visually striking work that speaks to both heart and mind.
We balance technology with intuition — adopting AI tools in post-production and asset optimisation to push what’s possible, while ensuring the final voice always belongs to a human.
Because for us, creativity isn’t just a service — it’s a form of understanding.
THE BEAST Films PHILOSOPHY
We believe that great content isn’t just about what you show — it’s about what you make people feel. Our mission is to create work that connects on an emotional level, earns attention through authenticity, and inspires belief in the brands and stories we tell.To be a creative production company in London today means to stand for something — and at Beast Films, we stand for empathy, excellence and evolution.

Selected Work & Proven Results
Creative philosophy only matters if it holds up under real-world pressure. The projects below demonstrate how Beast Film’s approach translates into results — delivering cinematic, emotionally intelligent creative content for global brands across multiple markets, platforms, and timelines. From investor films to international broadcast campaigns, each case study reflects the same principles: clarity of story, precision in execution, and creativity that scales.
DAZN INVESTOR
DAZN approached Beast Films to produce a cinematic investor film that could express its global ambition with clarity and confidence. As a creative production company, our role was to translate that vision into high-end creative content with international scale.
The project spanned multiple countries and featured key figures from global sport, including His Excellency Turki Alalshikh in Times Square, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell in New York, La Liga President Javier Tebas in Madrid, Frank Warren in London, and FIFA President Gianni Infantino in Miami. DAZN CEO Shay Segev anchored the film, shot in a green-screen studio outside Rome.
With limited access to each contributor and complex logistics across time zones, the focus was on precision, preparation, and cinematic consistency. The result was a polished investor film that reinforces DAZN’s position as one of the world’s leading sports broadcasters — and reflects Beast Film’s approach to delivering ambitious creative content at a global level.
BRITISH AIRWAYS — CAYMAN ISLANDS DESTINATION FILMS
Working alongside London creative agency Mr H, Beast Films created a series of cinematic destination films for the Cayman Islands Tourist Board — designed to capture not only the visual beauty of the islands, but the emotion and atmosphere of experiencing them.
The campaign included two 60-second hero films alongside a collection of 15-second short-form edits, all shaped around a poetic voiceover and an emotion-led creative direction. The approach prioritised cinematic storytelling, rhythm and mood over traditional tourism advertising.
Detailed pre-production, casting in Miami and extensive location scouting throughout the Cayman Islands enabled the shoot to operate with both flexibility and precision. A carefully planned visual structure ensured consistency across every deliverable while preserving room for creative exploration during the edit.
The success of the campaign later led to the films being adapted by British Airways Holidays, where they were broadcast internationally across television and British Airways’ global in-flight entertainment platform.
The project demonstrates Beast Films’ approach to branded storytelling: creating emotionally driven cinematic work capable of expanding beyond its original brief and reaching global audiences.
LIBERTY GLOBAL — END-OF-YEAR FILM
For Liberty Global’s 2023 end-of-year film, Beast Films delivered a cinematic corporate campaign produced across multiple countries under an extremely tight production schedule. The project demanded clear storytelling, visual consistency and seamless international coordination across every stage of production.
Led from London, Beast Films filmed across the UK, Amsterdam, Northern England and Ireland, with Liberty Global CEO Mike Fries serving as the narrative anchor throughout the film. At the same time, partner crews in Singapore and Denver were remotely directed through a unified creative framework, shared colour workflow and tightly coordinated production approach.
Despite the scale and compressed timeline, the final film felt cohesive, cinematic and emotionally connected — demonstrating Beast Films’ ability to manage ambitious international productions while maintaining a distinctive filmmaker-led visual identity.
Creative Thinking, Practical Filmmaking
At Beast Films, every brief begins with the same question: what is the creative potential of this idea? As a creative production company London brands trust, we start by exploring how a concept can become engaging, memorable and emotionally resonant. Only once the creative direction is clear do we ask the second question — how do we deliver that idea within the available budget?
This balance between creativity and practicality is what defines our approach. As filmmakers, we believe great work doesn’t come from simply executing a brief; it comes from understanding its potential and shaping it into something cinematic, intelligent and effective.
That philosophy is part of what makes Beast Films one of the most distinctive creative production companies in London. It also reflects our roots as an award-winning London video production company, where storytelling craft, production discipline and creative thinking come together to turn ideas into films that audiences remember.
