Cornwall and the South West have quietly become one of the most compelling places in the UK to find video production companies doing genuinely outstanding work. Strong locations, a growing creative community, and increasingly serious production infrastructure mean brands and agencies are no longer just passing through — they’re commissioning here by choice.
Salt & Gorse is one of them, offering video production in Cornwall.
Below is our list of the ten most creative and professional video and film production companies working across Cornwall and the wider South West. This isn’t a directory — it’s a considered overview of studios producing genuinely good work, from cinematic brand films to broadcast commercials and documentary content.
1. Salt & Gorse — Newquay, Cornwall
We’re Salt & Gorse — a film and video production studio based in Newquay, Cornwall, working with brands, agencies, and organisations across the UK and internationally. We make cinematic brand films, advertising campaigns, and narrative-led content for clients who care about how their work looks and feels.
Our work spans outdoor and action sports, fashion, wellness, travel, lifestyle, and purpose-driven organisations. We bring the same approach to every project — story first, technically precise, and genuinely collaborative from brief to delivery. Alongside commercial and brand film work, we produce surf and ocean content, podcast and vodcast series, and charity campaigns.
What makes us different is where we work from. Being Cornwall-based gives us direct access to some of the UK’s most dramatic filming locations — coastline, moorland, harbour towns — while our London relationships mean we can mobilise nationally. If you want high-end commercial filmmaking without the London overhead, that’s the conversation to have.

Choosing the right production company for your project
The South West has enough creative talent that the decision isn’t just about geography — it’s about who makes the right kind of work for your brief. A surf brand commissioning ocean content has different needs from a heritage organisation documenting community history, even if both are filming in Cornwall on the same week.
If you’re new to commissioning video professionally, our guide to video production costs in the UK breaks down what different budgets actually get you — from a £3,000 social cut to a £75,000+ broadcast campaign. It’s a useful starting point before you go out to quote.
For brands and agencies looking to work with a Cornwall-based production company that delivers at a national level, we’d welcome the conversation. Get in touch with the Salt & Gorse team — whether you have a brief ready or you’re at the early thinking stage.
