ISSUE #1
Unified Films celebrated its 8th birthday last week and so we thought we’d mark the occasion by sharing where we’re at, and where we’re going.
Over the years Unified has changed forms & talent along the way and now, we prepare to make another big change.
Recently, we shot the award-winning short film script, Song of the Selkie, in beautiful rural Scotland, and had an absolute blast. Not only that, but it reaffirmed a suspicion of ours we’ve been holding on to for a while...
Our hearts truly lie in narrative & commercial filmmaking, and we need to take the necessary yet challenging steps in this direction as filmmakers and as a business.
A month ago, Unified made a massive change.
We shot our very last wedding film, marking the end of 8 years of working with amazing couples, and telling the stories of their wonderful day.
You see, in those 8 years we’ve also been working in commercial film, but this always had to be balanced with many wedding projects. This meant very little time to develop our own film projects and limited capacity for commercial work.
So now, we’re hard at work on completing our remaining wedding film edits but also on turning the direction of the ship into becoming a fully-fledged commercial video production company.
We’re looking forward to the adventure & challenge of this next chapter, but in the meantime, we just want to say thank you to everyone who has supported us as a business so far, and to the wonderful wedding couples who let us into the most important days of their lives.
Here’s to the next step,
Jon & Ryan
