Hello!
Hey, you clicked! Betcha wanna know a little more about this award-winning production company that makes commercial and narrative films for the big, small, and wee vertical screen, right??
​
At Lost Clock, we make films that tell stories - the kind you just can't look away from; films to make 'em laugh, make 'em cry, make 'em wonder, make 'em feeeel. ​
​
Films like these:
​​
"Okay, ookaaay, I'm listening," you say. Well then, DARE YA to keep scrolling.
Ya see, we're here to tell human stories that make people feel.
Whether we are making ads, short films, feature documentaries or comedy TV, we aim to create work that stands out because it's emotionally resonant, a little out-there, and made by real humans - no generative robots here. If it makes ‘em laugh, great. If it makes ‘em cry, also great.
​
We believe great films are made through collaboration and passion. Our working environments are lively, inclusive, and fair - everyone is respected, supported, and encouraged to bring their weird and wonderful selves to the work. It's just more fun that way, eh?
A Brief History of Lost Clock
Big things have small beginnings
2017
Lost Clock sort of begins. Graham, our Director/DP, starts working as a freelance videographer, after packing in his half-baked dreams of becoming a mediocre design engineer. He realises quickly that filmmaking is what he actually loves.
​​
Now picture at the same time Calum, brother of Graham and - unbeknownst to him - soon to be Producer at Lost Clock Productions, working as an engineer also. He starts to notice what his li'l bro is up to and he thinks to himself, I want in on the action.
​
Graham and Calum join forces and work together for a year, learning on the job how to... uh... do the job.
But now things get interesting because childhood friend - and, also, soon-to-be-producer-at-Lost-Clock-Productions - Andrew gets the call up. He's working as a publisher in Toronto, but his passion for creative storytelling is itching him, and he decides to take a leap of faith...
2019
Lost Clock officially begins.

​
We’re always keen for a chat to discuss approaches. Whether it’s a mini-documentary, TV ad or short film, we want to tell your brand's story in a way that truly represents you.
​
Things to Ponder...
What?
It’s good to think about what you want your film to say about your brand. Is it finely tuned to your story and tone? Or are we promoting a specific product or feature? What do we want the audience to take away after watching?
Who?
Think target audience - who do you want the film to really connect with?
Where?
Will it be shown on socials, website, TV, internal? This can affect the optimal length, format, aspect ratio, music licensing and many other factors. We are experienced at optimising films to work across myriad different platforms, so that your story reaches as far as possibe.
How Much?
We love when a client has a budget in mind but we are aware this isn’t always the case. Our goal is to make the best film possible with the budget you provide, and we're happy to turnaround quotes quickly, based on a project’s scope. That said, for larger projects, it can be useful to have a budget in mind, so we can squeeze the most juice out for ya!
