Founded in 2019, Tungsten is a hybrid production studio in Leeds with a London office at Bell Yard. Virtual production, AI-augmented workflows, motion control robotics, high-speed cinematography, and a dedicated food kitchen. All under one roof, run by one team.
Every project starts with the brief. We work through concept development, scripting, and production planning with you. For VP projects, that includes building digital environments and running full pre-visualisation before a single light is switched on. You see the output before committing budget.
Our Leeds studio houses an LED volume for virtual production, motion control robotics, high-speed cameras, and a dedicated food kitchen. The approach depends on the brief. Some projects are on location. Some are entirely in-studio. Most combine both. One team handles the full shoot regardless.
Editing, colour grading, VFX compositing, and AI-augmented workflows. We handle the full post pipeline in-house. For projects using TungstenFLOW, that includes brand-trained AI content generation with documented provenance and human creative review at every stage.
We handle the full production from concept to delivery, or we slot into your existing pipeline at the stage where you need us. Some clients bring a finished script and need a crew. Others bring a product and need the whole campaign. Both work.
Andrew Beniston and Simon Sturgeon founded Tungsten in 2019 with a shared conviction: production technology should serve creative ideas. The team has grown around that principle. We work with agencies, brands, and other production companies across the UK, from single social shoots to multi-day campaigns for Netflix, KFC, M&S, Russell Hobbs, and Amazon.
