Films that move people. Content that works for them.

I’m Charlie Parish, a filmmaker, photographer and content strategist based in Surrey, working across the UK and internationally.

Formerly an agency producer for Toyota and Lexus, now making human-led films & content for brands, charities and founder-led businesses who want their story told honestly, not performed.

My films have raised £100k+ for charity, and one helped take a founder-led brand from unknown to the BBC’s The One Show.

I’ve also worked as a teaching assistant in schools, and during covid - I worked inside adult social care as a support worker. This has led to my filmmaking work within schools, Academies and the care sector also.
