Lens Awards 2026

Last night, the BearJam team headed to the Lens Awards 2026 and what an evening it turned out to be.

We were incredibly proud to be shortlisted for four awards, but to come home with wins in every category we entered made it a night to truly remember.

🥇 Gold – Best Use of Video in the Property, Construction and Facilities Sector for Landsec

🥈 Silver – Best Use of AI  for Sd Worxs

🥈 Silver – Best Use of Video in the Food & Beverage Sector for Company of Cooks

🥉 Bronze – Best Use of Documentary for Company of Cooks

Winning Gold for Best Use of Video in the Property Sector was a real highlight for us. Video continues to be such a powerful storytelling tool within property, and to be recognised for the impact and creativity of our work in this space means a huge amount to the team.

Our Silver awards for both Best Use of AI and Best Use of Video in the Food & Beverage Sector reflect the breadth of projects we’ve had the privilege to work on this year. From innovative AI-led content to beautifully crafted food and drink storytelling, it’s been exciting to push creative boundaries across different sectors.

And to round off the evening with a Bronze for Best Use of Documentary was the perfect finish a category that celebrates meaningful, story-driven content at its best.

A Brilliant Evening with the Team

The some of the team that headed down were James, Tristan, Trey, Phoebe, and Jacob we had a fantastic evening celebrating together. It’s not often we all get the chance to step away from projects and enjoy a night out as a group, so it was a great opportunity to reflect on everything we’ve achieved.

As Phoebe shared:
"This was my first year attending the Lens Awards. It was a very fun, well-organised event. The team had a company meeting beforehand and then we headed down towards the Brewery near the Barbican. It was a great way to celebrate with some of the team, meet other video production companies, enjoy the food, and see the amazing videos put forward for awards. We were lucky enough to come back with four awards — just fantastic! What a great evening, and I can’t wait for the next one."

Beyond the awards themselves, seeing the amazing work from other nominees gave us plenty of inspiration to bring into our own future projects.

Events like this are a brilliant reminder of why we love what we do — collaborating, experimenting, and constantly striving to raise the bar.

A huge thank you to the organisers of the Lens Awards at Cravenhill Publishing for hosting such a memorable evening, and congratulations to all the other winners and nominees. Here’s to more bold ideas, more collaboration, and hopefully a few more trophies along the way.
