The UK's top 40 film production companies

(For an updated, 2013 version of this article click here)

To mark the opening day of Cannes, here’s an exclusive round up of the UK’s top 40 film production outfits taken from Televisual’s May 2012 issue.

The British film industry is currently enjoying the best of times and the worst of times.

Home grown hits such as The King’s Speech and The Inbetweeners have delivered awards and huge box office. The UK is also a magnet for big budget Hollywood shoots, with features such as Prometheus, Snow White and the Huntsman and John Carter employing thousands of crew.

But it’s still an industry that remains as tough as ever in which to do business. In particular, financing and getting films made has not become any easier.

Former UK Film Council chairman and ex-Polygram boss Stuart Till summed up the situation neatly last month at a Bafta debate on the future of independent production. Citing the box office rewards of The Inbetweeners and The King’s Speech, he said: “It’s like a one arm bandit. The jackpot pays out more, but the chances of hitting it are getting less.”

The UK does have, however, several factors in its favour that increase its chances of hitting this global jackpot. In particular, the UK has benefited from the existence of a stable and easily understood film tax credit system that can deliver up to 20% of budgets.

Most importantly – and as the following pages demonstrate – the UK boasts a wealth of world class filmmaking talent and a respected film heritage.

The UK’s talent pool – so evident as you scan the lists of top directors, producers, DoPs, vfx houses and studios in this film special – provides a solid base to make acclaimed UK films and reassures Hollywood that its big budget shoots are in good hands here.

The UK’s top producers
Below is a list of the top 40 film production companies in the UK, which has been compiled with help and feedback from a number of leading film producers, agents and film PR executives.

The companies selected are those that have a track record of making films that attract box office, critical acclaim and awards. They are not just producers for hire – rather they are producers who look for and develop scripts, attach talent to projects, raise finance and risk their own money in films that they believe in. Missing from the list are companies that are owned by broadcasters (like FilmFour and BBC Films) as well as outfits that are predominantly distributors (Lionsgate, Pathe) or financiers (Prescience, CinemaNX).

The companies vary considerably in size and scale. We’ve chosen to list them alphabetically, but if we did try to rank them, it’s clear that Working Title would sit at the very top of the list. Having produced over 100 films and generated over $5bn at the global box office, the producer of Notting Hill, Elizabeth, United 93 and Green Zone is on a completely different scale to other production companies here. Fully funded by Universal Pictures, it feeds prestigious films with a British and European sensibility straight into Hollywood.

The top-tier of film production companies would then comprise about 15 other outfits. They are companies that make one or two films a year – some of which, like The King’s Speech or Slumdog Millionaire, become global phenomena.

Those companies are: Aardman, Big Talk Pictures, Cloud Eight, DNA, Ealing Studios, Ecosse Films, Heyday, Hammer, Number 9, Recorded Picture Company, Revolution, Ruby Films, Seesaw and Vertigo.

Aardman Animations – Peter Lord, David Sproxton, Nick Park
Bristol’s Aardman has won four Oscars, and over the past 40 years has established itself as a world leader in model animation. It’s been a productive year for the studio that takes years to make its lovingly crafted films – it’s just delivered two movies for Sony in less than six months, Arthur Christmas and The Pirates! Aardman is a fully integrated company, with successful TV, commercials and digital divisions too. Credits: Chicken Run, Wallace and Gromit in the Curse of the Were-Rabbit, Flushed Away, Arthur Christmas, The Pirates!

Archer Street Films – Andy Paterson, Anand Tucker
Production started in Scotland last month on Archer Street’s latest, the long gestating adaptation of The Railway Man. Oscar winners Colin Firth and Nicole Kidman lead the stellar cast in the £12m film about the true story of a Scottish prisoner of war and his journey to confront his Japanese captors. Archer Street was launched after the success of producer Paterson and director Tucker’s 1998 hit Hilary and Jackie. Credits: Girl With a Pearl Earring, Beyond the Sea, Burning Man

Working Title – Tim Bevan, Eric Fellner
Working Title’s scale, size and success is unique to the British film industry. “There’s no other company that does what it does,” says one rival, who describes it as being like the 51st state of Hollywood. “They are in a category of their own.” Although several of its recent films haven’t matched the commercial success that one expects from the producers of Notting Hill and Bridget Jones, it remains the pre-eminent British production company of its generation, ranking as one of the world’s – not just the UK’s – leading producers. Backed by Universal Pictures through to 2015 via a new first look deal which funds its projects, it’s trusted by the studio to deliver films which marry a British sensibility with Hollywood production values. Working Title has made nearly 100 features since 1983 that have grossed over $5bn at the box office. And that’s not to mention six Oscars and 30 Baftas. The company’s 2012 slate looks strong, and includes Baltasar Kormákur’s Contraband, starring Mark Wahlberg and Kate Beckinsale, which recently posted the Working Title’s all-time biggest US box office opening weekend; Les Misérables, by The King’s Speech director Tom Hooper and starring Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe, and Anne Hathaway; and Joe Wright’s epic love story Anna Karenina, starring Keira Knightley and Jude Law. It’s now shooting Rush, the Ron Howard directed film about Formula 1’s Niki Lauda and James Hunt based on a Peter Morgan script, and Closed, the John Crowley-directed film that stars Eric Bana and Rebecca Hall. Working Title also has a burgeoning TV division Working Title TV (WTTV), producing comedy and drama content such as Birdsong and The Borrowers for UK and US broadcasters.
