At Visionary Ape Media, I tell cinematic stories that connect people to adventure, nature, and the human spirit.

I’m Paul — a filmmaker, photographer, traveller, and storyteller — inspired daily by my children and by a lifelong love of the wild. From surfing at sunrise to camping beneath a blanket of stars, I live the outdoor lifestyle I capture through my lens. That lived experience shapes every project, giving my work an authentic, adventurous edge.

But my storytelling goes beyond the outdoors. Visionary Ape Media works with local businesses, brands, and organisations to craft video and photography content that inspires, informs, and engages. Whether it’s a promotional film, a brand story, lifestyle marketing or social media advertising my approach is always cinematic, creative, and tailored to your audience.

What I offer:

• Commercial and brand films & photography

• Business overview & promotional content

• Outdoor, lifestyle & natural history film and photography

• Documentary filmmaking

• Aerial filming, surveying and photography

• Freelance camera and photography services

• Social media advertising and marketing

For me, visual storytelling isn’t just a profession — it’s a way of life. I bring the same energy I take into the wild to every client project, ensuring each story is told with passion, precision, and creativity.

Visionary Ape Media is about creating work that bridges worlds and sparks imagination.
From the wild to the workplace — content that inspires.

Post-Production Services

Great stories are made in the edit. At Visionary Ape Media, post-production is where raw footage is transformed into a compelling visual journey that moves your audience. Every frame is treated with the same care and creativity we bring to the shoot itself.

Our approach

• Colour & Tone Mastery – Precise colour-grading to create mood and depth, from natural outdoor palettes to bold, stylised looks.

• Sound Design & Mixing – Clean, immersive audio, bespoke soundscapes, and licensed music that elevate the story.

• Motion Graphics & Titles – Subtle or striking, our graphics and typography reinforce your brand identity without distracting from the story.

• Multi-Platform Delivery – We optimise final outputs for web, broadcast, and social, ensuring your film looks flawless everywhere.

• Cinematic Editing – We sculpt a narrative that flows with rhythm and emotion, whether it’s a brand film, a social reel, or a long-form documentary.

Every project is handled in-house, allowing close collaboration and fast turnarounds while keeping the Visionary Ape signature: cinematic visuals rooted in nature, crafted for every story.

Safety First

Since safety is always our top priority, you are covered by £5m public liability insurance and up to £10m on a case by case situation. We also work closely with all governing bodies to ensure that I meet and exceed all regulations during my shoots.
