A fictional studio, built by Loomwest as a demo

Marenfold

Design, photography and film for brands that like to be looked at closely.

Drag the prints. Click one to open it.

Screening room

Films and reels, cut for where people watch.

A brand film for the web and the big screen, event films that sell next year's tickets, and short loops that never end on a hard stop. These play silently and only while they are on screen; each has a pause button.

The studio

Three people, two rooms, one phone number.

Marenfold started as a designer and a photographer sharing a rented cyclorama, and grew into a small studio that can take a project from the first sketch to the final export without handing it on. The same people who plan your job are the ones on set and in the edit.

  • Nora VeyDesign director. Identities, type and websites.
  • Callum DrayPhotographer. Portraits, products and events.
  • Ada LindqvistDirector and editor. Films, reels and colour.

DemoNora, Callum and Ada are fictional, and so are the clients: Kiln Street Makers, Lowmoor Coffee, Northrow Cycles, Oda & Fern Ceramics, Swellcombe Cider House, Tamsin Ridge Vineyard and Verrin Skincare.

DemoMarenfold is fictional: Morgan Hill is its setting, not an address, so the map shows the town. On your site, the map shows your studio and the link opens directions to it.
