OUR STORY
About Us
50 Pictures is a team of TV professionals who spent years thinking that the secret to great content was the best kit, the biggest budgets, and a famous face or two.

We were wrong.
Time and again, the most important thing was the story.

Stories are the most authentic and effective way to connect with a human audience. (And the occasional horse.)
Our Team
At the heart of 50 Pictures is a core team that brings story-finding experience and storytelling expertise to every project.

Around us is a wider family of trusted freelancers - a nimble, hand-picked crew - with specialist research, production, and post-production skills.

    Story Surgeon
    A storytelling craftsman with a razor-sharp eye for detail (with his glasses on), Rob has cut everything from feature films to hit TV series like Who Do You Think You Are? and MasterChef.
