Sophie Leonard
Sophie is co-founder and creative director of recently established Samphire Films, a fully independent production company, making premium factual content for a global audience. From returning ob doc series, to constructed factual to retrospective series / singles for PSBS, Svods and the American market, Samphire is a dynamic, disruptive indie with big ambitions.
Telling brilliant stories is our passion and the engine that drives the company. Our aim is always to make programmes that add to the national conversation, that have purpose, that entertain, that reach a broad audience. Samphire Films is also a place where behind-the-camera talent can do their best work. As a company, we prioritise and care deeply about company culture.
We have a forward-thinking, diverse and inclusive approach to the people we work with. Our aim is to become a first destination for top-tier talent across the spectrum, attracting a network of best-in-class producers, directors, production management staff, developers, DOP’s and editors.
