HAM & JAM
FILMING · EDITING · GRADING
Ham & Jam brings together the complementary skills of filmmaker and photographer Thom Atkinson and former BBC journalist and editor Rupert Waring.
With decades of wide-ranging production and editorial experience, we make films rooted in cinematic aesthetics and documentary storytelling.
Our combined portfolio includes work for BBC, Google, Lloyds Bank, GCHQ, the Department for Transport, Berenberg, Dole, AHEC and Mental Health UK.
Whether working with agencies or directly with clients, a small core team means senior involvement on every project and fewer layers between brief and delivery. Where a larger crew is needed, we draw on a trusted network of experienced industry professionals.
We offer end-to-end production, including filming, photography, audio and video editing, grading and reversioning.
If you'd like to discuss a project, we'd love
to hear from you.
