Nicely Done Productions Ltd

What Nicely Done Productions Ltd does

Nicely Done Productions Ltd is a UK-based global content studio founded in 2016 and headquartered in Reading, operating three integrated divisions: Stories (long-form documentaries and editorial films), Productions (brand films, campaigns and corporate content), and Animations (2D and 3D animated explainers and motion design). The studio serves enterprise and global brand clients across technology, telecommunications, financial services, energy, healthcare, and e-commerce, with named engagements for Microsoft, Google, Vodafone, Visa, Amazon Business, FedEx, Fujitsu, OATI, Carrier, Genesys, Medtronic, Minecraft, Ciena, and Expereo. Its flagship product, the 10-part documentary series 'Threads of Connectivity' launched in 2026 on National Geographic's digital platforms and narrated by Andy Serkis, marks its transition from a production vendor into a premium content studio with global distribution. The company has accumulated eight plus industry awards between 2024 and 2026, including Drum Awards (Gold/Silver), Lens Awards (Double Gold), EVCOM Clarion (Bronze), and GIMA (Silver).

The business model is professional services: quote-based, project-by-project engagements that begin with strategic discovery rather than formal briefs, covering the full lifecycle from story development and research through filming, animation, post-production, and multi-channel distribution. There is no proprietary technology platform; the offering is entirely craft-based, relying on senior in-house talent (a named team of 13 specialists across creative, editorial, animation, and finance). The studio has begun experimenting with generative AI tools (Midjourney, Nano Banana, Runway) for select projects but has no disclosed AI-native product or proprietary model. Pricing is not publicly disclosed, and the company is privately held and founder-led (Jay Slater) with no institutional investors, funding rounds, or parent company on record.
