The UK Top 50 is a ranking of brand and corporate film producers working in the UK.

Previously called Corporate 50 and run by Televisual until 2019, EVCOM brought back the ranking in collaboration with Moving Image and it is now in its second year running. The list is a really important measurement of success in our sector, a celebration of the brilliant work so many companies are doing and a reminder of the size and scope of the corporate and brand film sector.

We were really excited to announce the results of the survey at our reveal event on the 26th March.

At the event, Steve Garvey outlined the methodology used to navigate the survey results, discuss key takeaways from the survey, and announced the ranking! Following the reveal, guests enjoyed a networking breakfast. The event was sponsored by our headline sponsor Tysers, and our UK Top 50 sponsor ACrew4U.

To create the UK Top 50, we ask companies to fill in a survey about their year, in which more than 60 data points are used to assess each production business.

Companies are ranked and an advisory panel then assesses these rankings to offer a sense check and an industry overview. The advisory panel are as follows:

Marc Wright, Simply Communicate

Andrew Thomas, Communicate Magazine

James Bennett, Televisual

Jennifer Sproul, CEO, Institute of Internal Communications

Claire Fennelow, EVCOM

Steve Garvey, Moving Image
