Oh Hello
Rabble is an indie video production company run by troublemakers with 30 years of combined experience in advertising. We make big shiny commercials, scrappy social content, heartfelt charity films and funny shorts. We’re in our element making good stuff.
Sam
Filmmaker and advertising creative making bold, stylish comedy with an admiration for the absurd. Has created viral campaigns packed with humour and craft, and would still be doing this even if it made no sense financially.
Elle
Director of purpose-driven campaigns, crafting award-winning films that resonate emotionally. Produces and runs productions, bringing ambitious, meaningful projects to life. Will take photos of the dog posing in front of a laptop so it looks like he’s working.
We turn ideas into films, and we’re pretty hands-on with the whole thing. Sometimes we help shape the idea, sometimes we jump in when it’s ready to shoot. Either way, we take good ideas and run with them.
Being self-certified ‘good eggs’ means we’re very collaborative. Budgets, logistics, punching up an idea, figuring out the right execution for something cool, that’s our jam.
A big part of any project is getting the right people for the job. Rabble starts with us (Elle and Sam), but every film needs a different team. Need something lean and agile? Let’s do it. Need a bigger production with a bigger crew? We can scale up for that too. Small when it suits, big when it needs to be.
We handle production end to end: pre-production and planning, the shoot itself, and post all the way through to final delivery. TV, social and photography too.
They’re our go-to when we want to combine killer creative thinking with an unrivalled level of craft.
MAX LONGSTAFF -
HYBRID / CREATIVE DIRECTOR
Rabble took our idea and elevated it, bringing creativity, precision, sensitivity and real craft to every stage. Their execution was flawless, and the crew they brought together were collaborative, proactive and fully committed to delivering the best possible result. They genuinely went above and beyond throughout our campaign delivery.

South West is best
We’re proudly based in the South West of the UK and connected to a network of great filmmaking talent, bringing the right people to every project.
Adverts don’t have to be terrible
People don’t hate advertising, they hate boring, lazy advertising. If we’re going to interrupt someone’s day, the least we can do is make it funny, ambitious, strange, beautiful, or impossible to ignore.
Budgets go further
We’re full-service without excess. A small and scalable operation means we can put the budget on-screen.
