Hertfordshire a vibrant hub for the creative sector

The growing number of film studios establishing themselves in Hertfordshire has meant investment and a real focus on film production in the county, which has been beneficial to smaller production companies like Pearldrop. The county itself is full of history, beautiful landscapes, landmark buildings, villages and towns, meaning it’s a perfect place for a film location.

Colleges like North Herts College, West Herts College, Hertford Regional College and Oaklands College and the University of Hertfordshire provide high-quality and accessible courses for all subject areas within the creative sector. This means that within Hertfordshire there is a large number of people developing their skills ready to join the thriving and dynamic creative industry here. In addition to the already existing pool of creative professionals, including videographers, editors, scriptwriters and animators, this means it’s a great place to run a video production company now and in the future.

Hertfordshire’s creative industry thrives on collaboration. Pearldrop frequently partners with Hertfordshire-based advertising agencies, marketing firms and other creative organisations to deliver complete solutions for clients inside and outside of the county. It’s exciting to see these partnerships grow and develop. With over 122,000 businesses registered in Hertfordshire, spanning a huge range of industries, there are always interesting and unique organisations and companies wanting to tell their story through creative and engaging video content.

Hertfordshire’s strong third sector also provides plenty of opportunities for creative companies like Pearldrop.

“With many local and national charities operating from the county, we’ve had the chance to work on a wide range of important and fulfilling campaigns that have real impact on people’s lives.”

“Running a video production company in Hertfordshire and being part of the creative industry is extremely exciting.
