A Production Studio from Oscar-nominated names to the latest breakthrough talent, creating original film and TV, commercial, branded and music videos with an eclectic roster of directors that is, above all else, authentic and original.

Authenticity. That’s what agencies and brands can expect from us.

The Corner Shop was founded in 2013 by Emmy and BAFTA winning and Oscar nominated producer Anna Hashmi and DGA winning director Peter Thwaites, later joined by acclaimed director-partner Sara Dunlop to helm the UK company.

With offices in LA and London, our expertise extends beyond commercial and branded content,  to development and production for original scripted film and TV and documentary feature films. Selected as one of the BBC’s Small Indie Funding Companies,  we won a BAFTA with Channel 4 for a scripted series, received an Emmy for best commercial,  and released The Tale of Silyan from the Oscar nominated director of Honeyland Tamara Kotevska in December, 2025, winning best Documentary Feature film at the IDA, following premieres at Venice and TIFF.

We are accessible, collaborative, inclusive and creative partners - and like a corner shop, we have everything you could need – from all over the world.

The Corner Shop is a majority woman & minority-owned company and we believe that we must actively accelerate change in the industry by diversifying what happens in front of and behind the camera. We work to recruit diverse employees, cast and crews, have a clear code of conduct that ensures that everyone involved in a production understands that we work on a basis of mutual respect, have clear channels to allow anyone to notify us of discrimination they may have been subject to, and take responsibility for taking appropriate action where necessary.

This policy provides a framework of equality and fairness, outlining our commitment not to discriminate on the grounds of age, disability, gender, gender reassignment, marital status (including civil partnerships), race, ethnic origin, colour, nationality, national origin, religion or belief, or sexual orientation.
All freelancers and employees working on and off-screen will be engaged on the basis of aptitude and ability and encouraged to develop their full potential.

We will:

Actively seek to increase the number of people we work with who are from groups/communities that are under-represented in the production industry as a whole, or in particular job roles in the industry. 

Actively seek to increase the diversity of our talent networks and review our employment/hiring practices and procedures to help us identify the best talent. Advocate opportunities to increase the diversity of casting decisions. 

Make reasonable adjustments to enable disabled people to work with our company, both on and off-screen. Create an environment in which individual differences and the contributions of all our staff and freelancers are recognized and valued.
