It's been a busy few months at BearJam, and we wouldn't have it any other way. From award wins and industry recognition to welcoming new talent and speaking about the future of AI, here's a look at what we've been up to.
We were delighted to be shortlisted at this year's AI Comms Awards, celebrating the organisations and individuals shaping the future of AI communications.
A huge congratulations goes to our Founder and Executive Creative Director, James Hilditch, who received Highly Commended in the AI Communications Leader of the Year category. A fantastic achievement and well-deserved recognition for his work driving innovation in AI-powered storytelling.
We're incredibly proud to have won Best Use of AI in ESG, CSR & Sustainability Communications for our Nature Impact Contribution initiative, created in partnership with Nature Impact.
The initiative commits 1% of revenue from every AI-intensive project towards restoring English biodiversity through the Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) framework. It's an initiative we're passionate about, proving that innovation and sustainability can go hand in hand.
James recently spoke at WonderBites, presenting his talk, "AI & The Human Advantage."
The session explored why creativity, storytelling and human judgement remain at the heart of great filmmaking, even as AI continues to reshape the production process.
We'll be sharing highlights from the talk soon, so keep an eye on our social channels.
We're excited to officially welcome Zoe to the BearJam directors' roster.
A talented self-shooting director with a passion for documentary storytelling, Zoe brings creativity, technical expertise and a brilliant eye for authentic stories. We're looking forward to seeing the incredible work she'll create with our clients.
Take a look at her work on our Directors page.
The award nominations keep coming!
A huge congratulations to our Director, Trey Farley, who has been nominated for Creativepool Director of the Year.
Voting is open until next Friday, so if you've enjoyed Trey's work, we'd really appreciate your support.
We're also thrilled to see James Hilditch nominated for Creative Leader of the Year. Best of luck to them both!
Phoebe recently attended the EVCOM Clarion Awards at the London Stock Exchange, representing BearJam alongside some of the UK's leading purpose-driven filmmakers and event professionals.
The evening became even more memorable when BearJam received the EVCOM Eye Award—a special recognition celebrating emerging production companies creating exceptional work that doesn't necessarily fit traditional award categories.
It's a brilliant milestone for the team and one we're incredibly proud of as BearJam continues to grow.
The second half of the year is already shaping up to be our busiest yet.
We've got exciting new client projects in production, more AI innovation to share, and plenty of behind-the-scenes content coming your way.
If you're not already following us, make sure you connect with BearJam on LinkedIn and Instagram to keep up with everything we've got planned. We can't wait to show you what's next.
