Love letters to the Town; client – Action Transport Theatre
Reaching over 10,000 people organically in it’s first month online, Love Letters was designed from scratch by Canteen and given to us as a very simple concept with the trust that we’d do something special- Some young writers would pen anonymous letters to their hometown of Ellesmere Port and it’s inhabitants. We wanted to do the writers’ work justice and create something way beyond expectation, whilst avoiding Covid related cliché.
We’re really proud of this one. Please do give it a watch.

What we do
Canteen creates video content, adverts, commercial photography and we do art direction as well.
We’ll create content for you that your audience will actually notice AND enjoy watching by producing some of the most original, thought provoking and fun projects around. Running down tried and tested routes headlong is not for us. We chop our veg with a scythe, we stare into the sun and we’ll always shake it like nobody’s watching. We’d much rather take the least trodden path and come up with something unique rather than something obvious.
We might just be the company for you.
What you've said about us
There is always a total commitment to artistic quality from Sam and Canteen, and a sense of experimentation which means work often exceeds our expectations.
Nina Hajiyianni, Artistic Director – Action Transport Theatre
It’s not just the quality of the videography and photography that puts them at the top of my list to call when I am launching a promo campaign.
It’s the creativity and angle that come’s with Canteen’s approach to commercial business, it it’s never an over-sell, more of a considered understanding that reaches inboxes and social feeds with excitement, whetting appetites just as I had hoped. Working with them is easy, always a 2 way street that gets the best combined approach and never disappoints

Having a conversation over Zoom can challenge at the best of time. Filming over Zoom shouldn’t be a possible, but Sam made it look effortless.
