ABOUT US
welcome to Kolanut media
At Kolanut Media, storytelling is our DNA. Rooted in a transgenerational heritage of narrative craft, we believe that the stories we tell shape how the world sees itself – and how it changes.
Based in Brighton, UK, we are an award-winning production company creating films and photography that are as thought-provoking as they are visually striking. Our work has been showcased at film festivals and art exhibitions across Europe, Africa, and North America.
Our name carries deep meaning. Inspired by the ceremonial splitting of the kola nut, a revered West African fruit symbolising hospitality and kinship, we see storytelling as a shared rite—an encounter built on equity, empathy, and exchange. Like the kola nut, our work connects people, cultures, and perspectives, building global narratives.
We are passionate about reframing human interest stories in ways that demonstrate humanity, agency, dignity, and resilience. We produce narratives that humanise rather than stereotype, authentic voices that challenge the audience to see the world differently.
Whether entertaining, informing, educating, or inspiring action, our visual stories aim to spark imagination and conversation. From intimate documentaries to bold commercial campaigns, we combine creativity with integrity to deliver work that resonates with diverse audiences.
At Kolanut Media, we believe stories have the power to transform perspectives. We’re here to help you tell yours.
Kolanut Media: Where stories live, breathe, and transform.
Let’s create something powerful together.
