Who we are:
Ratio Films is a Glasgow-based production house founded by Tom Adams and Zach Pearl, dedicated to crafting high-quality videos and telling captivating stories. After graduating from the University of Glasgow in June 2024, we established Ratio Films to bring the filmmaker’s mentality to videography—pushing for a high level of thought and creativity in every project.
With over four years of experience in film/TV production, we specialise in promotional films, branded content, event coverage, and performance capture. Our passion for storytelling is at the heart of everything we do, helping businesses, artists, and individuals create visually stunning and engaging films that leave a lasting impact. At Ratio Films, we aim to build lasting relationships and cater to the creative needs of the modern market.
Equipped with state-of-the-art cinema cameras, we have the technical abilities and resources to deliver high-quality promotional material, with professional lighting, colour grading, editing, and audio mixing. Our style leans towards the cinematic, with intent creative behind every shot. We aspire to push creative boundaries with each client, suited to their needs and wants.
Ratio Films covers all aspects of production, including pre-planning, writing and devising, filming, editing, and composing all within the remit agreed with each client. On our website, you will find a range of projects we have enjoyed developing, on both larger and smaller budget scales.
