About Aposs · Wigan · Est. 2006
Capturing the personality of people and places.
Aposs is a creative studio specialising in short films and social media video campaigns that make an impact and move people.
Twenty years of telling stories
For more than twenty years, we have been working at the intersection of storytelling, culture and communication, helping organisations shape how they are seen and understood.
That experience has been built across councils, colleges, charities, manufacturers and independent brands. It has given us a sharp instinct for what resonates, what cuts through, and what genuinely influences perception and behaviour.
Emotion, used with intent
We believe emotion is the most powerful driver of action. When a story feels honest and human, it earns attention, trust and belief. Our films are crafted to create those moments, using storytelling as a strategic tool rather than a surface layer.
In practice that comes down to four things: clarity, connection, confidence and change. Read our ethos.
How the studio works
Aposs works as a studio, bringing together a trusted network of experienced creative professionals around each project. That lets us build the right team for the work, rather than fitting the work around a fixed team.
- Creative development — finding the story, shaping the brief and planning who and what we film.
- Direction and interviews — getting real people to sound like themselves on camera.
- Camera, drone and sound — from a single videographer to a full crew.
- Editing and grade — the main film, plus social cut-downs, subtitles and the versions you need.
Matty Andrews is the filmmaker behind Aposs, making films from Wigan for more than twenty years. Read more about Matty.

Who we work with
We collaborate with organisations and brands that care about how they show up in the world. Whether the goal is to build pride, strengthen culture, inspire participation or communicate direction, the focus is always on work that feels authentic and effective.

At its core, Aposs exists to help organisations tell stories they are proud of. Stories that connect, create confidence and lead to meaningful change.
“I’ve worked closely with Aposs for over a decade across a wide range of projects. They’ve always been professional, reliable and easy to work with, consistently delivering high-quality work and understanding exactly what’s needed.”
