About us.
Two people, tons of ideas, and a questionable passion for weird sounding electronic music from the 90s.
Prolific North’s ‘Production Company of the Year’ 2026
For over 20 years, we’ve worked on everything from TV ads to TikToks – creating for global giants, challenger brands and ambitious startups across a range of agencies together.
In early 2024, we went independent as adam+gary, specialising in video production with a heavy dose of VFX and 3D animation. Since then, we’ve picked up awards, crafted campaigns that ‘broke the internet’ (not our words), and been trusted by names like Kia, The Ryder Cup, Qatar Airways, Wimbledon and Monopoly, among others.
Whether you’re a brand, agency or freelancer – if you need full-production support, a single hero VFX shot, or just some extra creative firepower for your in-house team, we can help.
Agencies we’ve partnered with:
Adam Johnson
Adam is a natural problem-solver, blending his love of technology and creativity to deliver projects that punch well above their weight. Usually found knee-deep in the 3D animation and VFX side of our campaigns, he thrives on the challenge of “How can we pull this off?” A connoisseur of retro antiquities, you can often find Adam wherever there's good arcade games (he's a mean opponent in Street Fighter!).
Gary Bannister-Simm
Gary is a Director specialising in video and animation, with a career spanning senior leadership and commercial filmmaking, both agency and client-side. When he’s not behind the camera or locked in the edit suite, he’s usually driving concepts and shaping the creative direction of our campaigns.
Not-so secretly green-fingered, no empty space is safe from new plants. He also has a mild obsession with The Sopranos
“They truly listened to our ideas, even the craziest ones… When they sent us the final video, it was like they’d climbed into our heads!
They treated our project not just as another gig, but as a shared artistic endeavour, infusing it with their own creative energy and genuine care.”
