Tiny Ark is an end-to-end film and video production company headquartered in Dublin, Ireland, founded in 2010 and operating with an 11-50 person team. The company offers a unified suite of production services spanning commercial film production, documentary filmmaking, live event coverage, music video production, and brand story films, covering the full production lifecycle from strategy through production, post-production, and distribution. It positions itself as a creative partner rather than a transactional vendor, targeting international brands and advertising/creative agencies seeking high-quality visual content for marketing and brand storytelling purposes. The company maintains an in-house and affiliated roster of directors with distinct creative styles, allowing brand clients to select directorial vision within a single production engagement.

The company's revenue model is project-based, with one-time fees quoted on a per-project basis through direct contact with the CEO, Nathan Reilly. Pricing is not publicly disclosed. New business is generated primarily through direct CEO-led outreach, the company's website portfolio, and referrals, with social proof derived from named clients including Stripe, Shopify, Intercom, Airbnb, Canon, Hennessy, Tourism Ireland, DP World, Jameson, and CMAT. The company has built repeat agency partnerships with Havas, Publicis London, Public House, Teneo, The Hive, and Hogwash, embedding itself in the agency production supply chain.

Tiny Ark operates without disclosed external funding, parent company, or M&A activity, functioning as an independently owned private company. The leadership team comprises CEO Nathan Reilly, CTO Alex James, Creative Director Mark O'Brien, Technical Director Blaine Rennicks, Director Eilis Doherty, Director of Photography Leon Forristal, Head of Production Gabi Chrobak, Head of Post Production Colm Moore, and supporting producers, editors, and motion designers.
