“It is the invaluable support from key industry players like Shadowbox that nudges you closer to getting your story on the screen.”

Poppy O’Hagan, Producer — Think of England (2026)

“Approach Shadowbox, ask the questions, as from my experience, they are very open to helping wherever they can.”

“Both behind the scenes and in front of the camera, there was a level of quality we were striving for and coming to this big studio, all the team were like ‘oh this is serious business!'”

Think of England (2026)

“Producers may think that their projects are too small, but actually Shinfield have such a varied range of facilities — stages, workshops and smaller spaces you can also use. You can pretty much find everything you’re going to need. We even used a bit of land on the backlot to double as Sicily!”
