History

Embankment Films was founded in 2012 by Tim Haslam and Hugo Grumbar. The company specialises in global commercialization of high-quality, award-winning filmed entertainment, providing scripted and unscripted entertainment to distribution platforms throughout over 70 countries globally. It describes itself as a commercial 'Hub' for storytelling talent — writers, directors, producers and cast — and, whilst complimented by in-house producers, as a filmmaking facility that is both talent and audience facing. The company states that its team shares a career roster of over 400 productions made for global distribution in cinema and all platforms, as well as catalogue management of over 1000 titles, and that it is skilled in the assessment of market opportunities and the assembly of pre-sales and independent financing of productions in a manner that allows filmmakers to maintain ownership in their films. To describe its Hub and the 'uniqueness' of its skills, Embankment adopted the moniker of 'Converter'.
