Old Mill Pictures

We develop, film and edit documentaries for commissioners and producers, alongside our own independent films and series. Our work follows people, rural life, art, heritage and the places that shape them.

Founder Shane Hatton leads each production, with camera, location sound and specialist crew planned around the project. Whether you have an initial idea or an established brief, we can take the production through to delivery.
