WHO WE ARE
Thirty years of making things that matter. Still got that crazy energy to take you where you want to go.
N5 Productions is a London-based production company founded by Georgia Glynn-Smith, one of the UK's most experienced food and lifestyle photographers and an award-winning commercial director.
We work out of N5 Studios in Islington, London. We come to where the story is. Handpicked crew, experienced professionals, and a way of working that puts your story and your rights first.
Every project comes with a clear contract, transparent pricing and full intellectual property ownership for you. These days, your story can be worth far more than a single film. You should own it.
THE N5 DIFFERENCE
Why this is not just another production company.
-
OWNERSHIP
100% intellectual property stays with you. Written into every contract before we start. No buyout clauses, no small print
-
TRANSPARENCY
Full cost breakdown before you commit. NET 14 payment terms for crew. Everything agreed in writing before a camera rolls.
-
EXPERIENCE
Not a startup learning on your budget. Georgia has directed for the biggest names in food, lifestyle and publishing.
-
ETHICS
Every crew member works under a proper agreement. Fair rates, clear terms, mutual respect. How you make something matters as much as what you make.
What We Make
Full-service production.
From brief to delivery.
Every project is handled end-to-end. Concept development, pre-production, filming, post-production and delivery, all from one experienced team.
Branded Content
Cinematic brand films and campaign content that tells your story with craft and intention. From 60-second hero spots to full campaign suites.
Events Films
Multi-camera event coverage that captures the energy, atmosphere and story of the day. Awards, launches, conferences, festivals.
Social Content
Platform-native content shot with proper production values. Each piece is designed for where it lives, not resized from something else.
Photography
Georgia's original craft. Thirty years of editorial and commercial photography across food, lifestyle, portrait and product. The same cinematic eye, in stills.
Experience shared.
Talent developed.
N5's mentorship programme connects experienced industry professionals with aspiring filmmakers, editors and producers who are ready to learn on real productions.
We value life experience as much as technical skill. Formal qualifications are welcome but never required. If you have the drive and the curiosity, we want to hear from you.
Work alongside experienced crew on real commercial productions
Structured learning with genuine career progression
Life experience valued, not just qualifications
Pathway to paid crew work for strong candidates
The programme runs in both directions. We need mentors as much as we need mentees.
If you're an experienced professional who wants to give back and help shape the next generation of production talent, we'd love to hear from you too.
WHY THIS MATTERS
Purposeful production.
Powerful stories.
"I believe stories belong to the people who lived them. N5 Productions exists to help people tell theirs, keep theirs, and build something real from them."
GEORGIA GLYNN-SMITH — FOUNDER
Most people who commission content don't think to ask who owns the footage afterwards.
What they can reuse. What it's actually worth beyond the first post. It's not a conversation
most production companies start. We do.
At N5 Productions, every agreement is clear, every rate is fair, and every piece of
work belongs to the people who commissioned it. That's not a USP. That's
just how we think it should be done.
For clients
You own 100% of the IP. Full cost transparency. Everything in writing before we start.
For mentees
Real experience on real productions. Life experience valued alongside technical skills.
For crew
NET 14 payment. Proper contracts. Fair rates agreed before work begins.
For the industry
Proof that doing things properly and doing them profitably are the same thing.
