About Casual

Twenty years young,
still learning

Casual started with two friends in 2006.

The first commission: 15 video diaries for Expedia, shot on the road from London to Mongolia in a 1987 Mini, with a camcorder, a laptop and a bit of nerve. Even then, making films for a global brand felt like a glimpse of something bigger.

Two decades on, the founding idea hasn’t changed.

It’s amazing what you can do when you use the latest technology creatively and efficiently.

You get the proof of that in every film with our name on it.

“Casual are the best people I’ve worked with in the industry. They are super dedicated… they just deliver energy and enthusiasm from the first day to the last.”

David Lennon, Executive Creative Director, FORTUNE Brand Studio

How we choose the people you get to work with

Ask our clients what they love about Casual, and the most common response is: our people. That didn't happen by accident. Back in 2014 we worked out exactly what makes an excellent Casual employee and condensed it to five values. We've hired, promoted and rewarded against them ever since.

  • Passionate about making clients happy
  • Can-do and proactive
  • Team-spirited and accountable
  • Do more with less
  • Open and positive

What our values mean for you

Whoever picks up your project shows up like the best internal hire you could make. Reliable, commercially sharp, and genuinely good to work with.

“Whenever we work together, Casual Films feels like an extension of our business.”

Nicole Dorskind, Managing Director, ThirtyThree
Meet Cas

Cas, the arctic fox

Found from the Alaskan mountains to the Asian steppe, the arctic fox is a great survivor. Quietly intelligent. Built to get underneath the surface of things.

Cas stands for how we approach your film. Calm in difficulty. Sharp in chaos. Looking past the noise to what is actually happening, what is actually being felt and what will actually land.

And for what we value. Craft over volume. Trust over noise. Effectiveness over performance.

You’ll find Cas on the cover of every Storypulse™ report we send.
