MIKE HOPKINS
VISUAL COMMUNICATIONS
I'm a filmmaker and photographer with over 20 years of professional experience creating compelling content for brands, organisations and broadcasters including Jaguar Land Rover, Nikon, V&A, Science Museum, Sainsbury's, Starbucks, Tourism Australia and Virgin Atlantic.
I currently specialise in working with museums, art galleries, cultural institutions, antique and fine jewellery specialists, wineries and fine wine brands. I'm drawn to organisations that celebrate heritage, artistry and craftsmanship, and to telling the stories behind exceptional objects, collections, people and experiences.
My work combines cinematic visuals with an editorial eye to produce films and photography that feel authentic, elegant and timeless. I help organisations tell meaningful stories and connect with audiences across their websites, social media and digital campaigns. My photography has been commissioned for editorial features, marketing campaigns, brochures and online publications.
I've filmed and photographed projects across the UK, Europe, USA, Canada, India, China, South Africa and Australia, working in studios, on location and in demanding environments. From concept development and production through to editing and final delivery, I manage projects from start to finish, combining creative storytelling with technical expertise.
I edit in Adobe Premiere Pro and have a strong understanding of digital marketing and social media strategy, ensuring every project is not only visually engaging but also effective across today's digital platforms.
Whether you're promoting a brand, documenting an exhibition, capturing an event or telling the story of a winery, museum or artisan business, I'd love to help bring your story to life. Feel free to get in touch to discuss your next project.
