What we are all about

Creative Collaboration and Colour Technology

We work with filmmakers to create stunning, cinematic films that inspire and move audiences. Our team is always up for a challenge and is continually looking for new and innovative ways to deliver projects.

Supporting Independent Filmmakers

Dirty Looks loves independent films. We know that indie filmmakers are the backbone of the UK film industry, and we want to help them make the most impactful work. We often support projects from up-and-coming talent as well as stories which resonate with Dirty Looks’ values and champion causes we deeply care about.

Reducing our carbon emissions

We are powered by 100% renewable energy and we are exploring ways to reuse the heat generated by our computing. We have set a net-zero target for 2040 and we are working with our stakeholders to reduce our emissions.

“You guys were so on it and always across everything we needed, and very accommodating to moving targets and last minute changes. It gave me such peace of mind throughout the process.”

"Everyone really cared about the movie. At this stage of a project, when dealing with lots of VFX shots from different vendors it's the perfect time for people to get stressed and freak out - Dirty Looks never did. They were calm, responsible and responsive at all times."

"Working with Dirty Looks was a very personalised service. We met everyone involved, and it was clear that everyone was focused on our project. The producers were fantastic at managing expectations. I received realistic answers that I could confidently share with our executives."

Ethical Film Rendering

We are working in partnership with Deep Green, the sustainable data centre company, on a project which repurposes the heat generated by our post-production computing and contributes it to community swimming pools, for free.

Dirty Looks is joining the campaign to contribute heat to 1500 UK pools!
