The former Bare Films Production team, now renamed Darling, is to join the UK commercial production arm of RSA Films.

Darling at RSA will be headquartered at RSA Films’ Soho Beak Street office and headed up by joint MDs Clare Timms and Kelly Doyle, and Head of New Business/Executive Producer Kat Downs. The team will also include Directors Representative Phoebe Court-Thomas, and Production Managers Carla Terranova and Olivia Marcel.

The Darling roster comprises of directors Adam Gunser, Steve Green, Gus Filgate, Marcus Lundin, Jacob Hopewell, Daniel Borjesson, Cristiana Miranda, Martin Brierley, Pete Salmi, and Betsan Morris Evans. Plus several new signings to be announced in the coming weeks. 


Darling MD Clare Timms said: “When the opportunity with Kai and the team at RSA came along I was thrilled. It’s an incredibly exciting new venture, we get to continue with the very best of what we loved doing at Bare and our exceptional production values but with all the added benefits of being part of the global RSA network.”

Darling MD Kelly Doyle said: “We are super chuffed to be launching our new venture Darling @ RSA and are hitting the ground running with our first shoot next week. The team cannot wait to get going and there will of course be an official launch party so look out!”

RSA MD Kai Hsiung said: “We’re looking forward to exploring new production opportunities with Clare, Kelly and the rest of the Darling team. Bare Films had a stellar reputation, and we couldn’t be happier to embark on a new joint venture during this very special year for RSA.”
