And...cue the confetti!

We’re celebrating 20 years crafting stories in video.


From humble beginnings in 2005, when video still often meant dealing with physical tape, CH Video has delivered thousands of projects for clients across many sectors - some of whom have been with us since the very beginning.


We’ve always kept things intentionally small: a close-knit team of experienced creatives, supported by a trusted circle of freelance talent. That balance has helped us stay flexible, collaborative and grounded.

What’s kept us going all these years? A love for the work, pride

in our craft, and strong relationships with clients who see us not just as a supplier, but as part of their story.

 

Emily Blanden, Managing Director and founder: ‘20 years ago, it was never my plan to set up a company; I merely wanted to work as Producer in the video industry and an opportunity arose with

my Mum. This was the stepping stone that led to the creation of CH Video and my Mum and I working together.

Since then, we’ve grown from a small team to now featuring in the Top 30 list of EVCOM production companies in the UK.


Our clients continually praise our creativity, quality and our ability to turn things around last minute.


I’m incredibly proud of the partnerships we’ve built with our

clients over the last 20 years and the trust they’ve put in us to deliver

standout video content but what I’m most proud of is our wonderful team spirit at CH and the positive impact CH has had on the careers of so many in that time.’


Diana Blanden, HR, Finance Director and founder: ‘I am so proud that from a small dream two decades ago we have built a successful company through organic growth, many challenges and plenty of hard work. This milestone belongs to our talented and dedicated team, past and present, our clients and friends who have also created

many wonderful memories for us along the way.’


As the world of video keeps shifting, we’re right there with it -

picking up new skills, trying new ideas, new solutions and always focused on making work that really impresses. That’s a wrap on our first 20 years - roll on the next.


Happy Birthday to us!

We're thrilled to announce that we won not one, or two, but THREE Lens Awards at Communicate Magazine's prestigious awards event. We won awards for best One-off Video Campaign (Bronze) and Best Lifestyle and Wellbeing (Gold) for our work with Essity , a global hygiene and health leader that trusted us to transform essential H&S by producing a fresh and memorable induction video for visitors to their historic Oakenholt Mill. Delivering key messages with humour and heart, our approach stars children from real Essity employees as the mill’s pint-sized operators. It was a silver for Best Live or Experiential Video, celebrating our cinematic event work with PepsiCo . The Away from Home team’s breakout room at an international conference contained five ultrawide 4K screens stretching nearly 30 meters. Where we delivered 20 videos and nearly 70 assets overall, blending real footage, AI generated visuals, and synchronised side-screen magic. A panoramic feel that supported our client’s event in a whole new way. Thank you to our awesome team of in-house creatives. Photographed, a delegation from CH attended the event on behalf of the whole company.
