PUSH Films

What PUSH Films does

PUSH Films is a Lisbon-based international commercial film production company founded in 2022 that operates as a self-described "one-stop shop" for advertising content. The company produces commercials, branded content, music videos, short films, and documentaries for advertising agencies and global consumer brands, working with clients such as M&M's, Samsung, VISA, Nestle, SuperBock, Gaviscon, Compeed, BWIN, BacanaPlay, and Havas London. Its core technology is an integrated production pipeline combining live-action shooting with 2D and 3D visual effects, supported by a 920 sqm fully equipped studio in Lisbon that includes three working kitchens for food photography preparation and multiple shooting areas. The company maintains a curated roster of six directors — MARTIANS, Anastasiia, Nuno Correia, Zaeem Assad, André Cruz, and Rui dos Anjos — each specializing in different visual styles and verticals, and Nuno Correia is exclusively represented by PUSH Films in the UK market.

The company's business model is professional services-based, generating revenue through project fees for commercial production and director representation fees. PUSH Films does not publish pricing; engagements are quote-based depending on project scope, director, and production requirements. Distribution is direct-to-client, primarily through agency relationships (notably Havas London) and direct brand engagement, with no intermediary channels. The company operates as part of a three-entity ecosystem that includes PUSH Production Service (production services division) and PUSH Visual Effects / PUSHVFX (post-production division), allowing the group to capture workflow across the production-to-delivery chain. Marketing is portfolio-driven, primarily through the company website, Instagram, and Vimeo, supplemented by industry award recognition (Young Directors Award, ADC UA). The company is privately held, based in Portugal, and does not have disclosed funding.
