DINNICK & HOWELLS IS A DESIGN STUDIO THAT CRAFTS MOVING IMAGES FOR
BRANDS, BROADCAST & FILM.
In other words, we create motion graphics and DESIGN for production companies, BRANDS & agencies, with passion and perfectionism.
DESIGN
COMING FROM A GRAPHIC DESIGN BACKGROUND, EVERYTHING WE DO HAS THE SENSIBILITY OF A DESIGNER. TYPOGRAPHY IS METHODICALLY CURATED AND CRAFTED, IMAGES AND COLOUR ARE tuned UNTIL THEY SING, COMPOSITIONs feel just right, but beyond all of that we are DESIGN thinkers, and WE takE pride in OFFERING IDEAS THAT forgE simplicity from complexity.
OUR CLIENTS
2D AND 3D
MOTION GRAPHICS
Our 2D AND 3D motion GRAPHICS work SUPPORTS television programs AND FILMS. WHETHER CREATING MAPS, 2.5D PHOTO TREATMENTS, FULL 3D SCENES, OR MAIN TITLES, OUR MOTION WORK ALWAYS COMPLEMENTS AND SUPPORTS THE SUBJECT MATTER, BOTH TONALLY AND STYLISTICALLY.
WE PRIDE OURSELVES ON BEING AESTHETIC CHAMELEONS AND INTERPRETERS, ALWAYS REACTING TO CLIENTS AND BRIEFS RATHER THAN IMPOSING ANY KIND OF HOUSE STYLE. WE’RE FRIENDLY, TEAM-PLAYERS, BUT ALWAYS OFFERING OPTIONS BEYOND WHAT IS ASKED OF US.
WHAT OUR CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY
JONATHAN WAS A KEY MEMBER OF MY TEAM FOR THE DISNEY+ DOCUMENTARY THAT I DIRECTED, IF THESE WALLS COULD SING, AND WAS A JOY TO WORK WITH. HE WAS VERY COLLABORATIVE AND TOOK MY BRIEF AND THEN PROCEEDED TO CREATE VIBRANT AND INFORMATIVE GRAPHICS TO ADD COLOUR AND PACE TO THE FLOW OF THE DOCUMENTARY.
MARY MCCARTNEY, PHOTOGRAPHER, FILM-MAKER AND SUSTAINABLE FOOD PIONEER
What to say about Jonathan Howells? Professional, articulate, friendly. Artistic, problem-solving. Smart, hard-working, determined. Econimically viable- on a project by project basis! Gifted, technologically savvy, but also with a sense of fun. Having worked together three times now, in a wholly satisfactory manner, I'd recommend Jonathan to anyone. And can't wait to find our next project together
MATT WILKINSON, producer, stigma films
Stylish. Innovative. Assiduous. Passionate. I have worked with Jonathan at Dinnick & Howells on a number of projects and he is all of the above. He is a great collaborator and is a joy to work with when trying to develop a new style or palette of VFX. He is always on the look out for the latest innovations in the industry and is keen to pioneer new techniques both during filming and in post. His artistry and visual flair will elevate the production value of any film lucky enough to have him on the team.
Johnny Shipley, Director/producer
JONATHAN PROVIDED MOTION GRAPHICS FOR EUROPE FROM ABOVE, A FIRST TIME SERIES FOR NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC. HE WAS A PLEASURE TO WORK WITH AND HIS BEAUTIFUL, CREATIVE AND THOUGHTFUL WORK NOT ONLY EXCEEDED MY EXPECTATIONS BUT ALSO HELPED TO DEFINE THE LOOK OF THE SERIES AND MAKE IT THE SUCCESS THAT IT TURNED OUT TO BE. I WOULDN'T HESITATE TO WORK WITH HIM AGAIN.
MARK BRIDGE, SERIES PRODUCER, WINDFALL FILMS
JONATHAN HOWELLS IS MY MOTION GRAPHICS DESIGNER OF CHOICE - A CONSUMMATE CRAFTSMAN WITH IMPECCABLE TASTE AND A JOY TO WORK WITH.
IAN DUNCAN, CO-FOUNDER, CREATIVE DIRECTOR, WINDFALL FILMS
I'VE WORKED WITH JONATHAN ON TWO VERY DIFFERENT FILMS AND THEY BOTH OWE HIM A HUGE DEBT. HE BRINGS A CLARITY OF VISION TO EVERYTHING HE PRODUCES AND HE'S A PLEASURE TO WORK AT EVERY STAGE OF THE PROCESS. UNDAUNTED BY CHANGING BRIEFS AND STRAINED BUDGETS, JONATHAN RELISHES THE CHANCE TO TELL COMPLEX STORIES INTELLIGENTLY, IMAGINATIVELY AND BEAUTIFULLY. I LOOK FORWARD TO TESTING HIS BOUNDLESS PATIENCE, GOOD HUMOUR AND CREATIVITY ON MANY MORE PROJECTS IN THE FUTURE.
PETER GAUVAIN, DIRECTOR
We worked with Dinnick & Howells on a promotional video for our legal tech SaaS product, to support funding efforts. Jonathan helped us to develop the storyboard as well as taking care of the shoots, product animations and final production. His creativity, expertise and big-picture vision was extraordinarily helpful. Jonathan was able to help us craft the message while making it simpler. The end product is fantastic, receiving rave reviews from the management team and investors. It will be an invaluable tool as we go out for our next funding round.
