The UK Top 50 survey is now open, marking the start of the sector’s annual snapshot of brand and corporate film production across the UK. Produced by Moving Image in partnership with EVCOM, the UK Top 50 remains the only comprehensive ranking of producers working in the field, and a trusted benchmark for brands, agencies and production houses.

Now entering its fourth edition, the UK Top 50 continues to highlight the scale, success and diversity of brand and corporate filmmaking.  

The survey is open to independent production companies and agencies that generate at least 50% of their film revenue in brand and corporate film. It uses more than 60 data points to create an accurate view of business performance, creative output and sector-wide trends.  

The results are compiled into the definitive report on the sector, providing researchers with unique benchmarking, giving brands a better understanding of the market, and supporting new business by highlighting the leading producers.

Participants will receive early access to the final report before wider release.  

The UK Top 50 attracts an audience of movers and shakers in brand communications and film.  Last year’s Tier 1 Reach was more than 175,000 professionals on LinkedIn expressing 97% positive audience sentiment. The 2025 report was downloaded over 300 times, and more than 150 print copies were distributed at industry events.  

Producers can access the survey from today, free of charge, by clicking here. The deadline for responses is Friday 6 February. The results will be announced at the 2026 reveal event in London in late March, followed by a joint EVCOM and Moving Image webinar exploring the findings.

Steve Garvey, CEO of Moving Image, said:

"The UK Top 50 has been instrumental in putting brand and corporate film back on the map of the UK screen industries. We are forever grateful to the industry players who have supported the initiative since it developed from the Televisual Corporate 50.  

2026 will be bigger, better and more compelling than ever. We look forward to seeing which production businesses have been the most successful in 2025."

EVCOM Executive Director Kai Duggal had this to say:

“The UK Top 50 has re-energised the brand and corporate film sector. As companies strive to climb the rankings, we’re seeing more activity, more focus and greater attention on the quality of work being produced and the impact it has than at any point in recent years.”
