background

Leith Creatives grew out of Brian Leith Productions, founded in 2006 by pioneering natural history and environmental filmmaker Brian Leith.

Brian and Mandy Leith had worked together since the early 1990s, creating landmark natural history and environmental films before building BLP into an award-winning international production company.

Twenty years on, and with Brian retired, the company has evolved into Leith Creatives – a new chapter built around collaboration and creativity as truly independent producers.

our approach

We remain committed to thoughtful storytelling and strong visual craft that resonates globally.

We’re proud of our heritage, and we look forward as we work together with talented filmmakers and like-minded creative partners to develop bold ideas telling stories that can change how audiences view the natural world, important now as much as ever as the changing story of our experience of extreme weather as evolving baselines, rather than anomalies.
