About

we’re as memorable as our content.

People are core to what we create. We share their stories, with them in mind.

But people are also at the core of how we make things. On every project we make sure our cast, crew, collaborators and clients always get a fair deal.

Cause the best work comes from a creative collaboration where every voice is valued equal.

“Working with High Tide was a genuine pleasure and the smoothest production experience anyone could ask for. Absolute professionals – efficient, proactive and incredibly good at what they do. On top of all of that, a real joy to interact with.”

Co-founder & producer

Alex Porter-CURRIE

As High Tide’s Producer, I look after our clients and new business.  I love bringing people together to make great films. My job is to organise everything from; securing locations, booking actors and organising equipment to scheduling film shoots, all whilst making sure we don’t go over budget!

I was recently awarded a BIMA100 Award for our commitment to environmental sustainability on all of our productions.

Co-founder & head of creative

Eathan Currie

As Head of Creative, I lead the in-house creative team at High Tide. Working with clients throughout the entire production process from ideas to final delivery, I shoot and edit everything we create. This involves planning what we’re going to film, setting up the shots on the day and stitching it all together.

This way of working ensures a close relationship between the team and our clients and enabling me develop the right creative approach for every brief.

Our authentic and sincere approach to storytelling in our content is something that we pride ourselves on. I’m lucky to be able to work with our writer & director, Ross as well as our trusted pool of freelancers on an exciting range of projects.

Writer & Director

ROSS JOHNSTON

I’m High Tide’s in-house Writer & Director. My job is to get to know our clients and understand what their story is, and how they want to tell it. I script our content and develop how each film will look and feel.

On set I work with our clients & contributors to provide a supportive and positive environment, directing them throughout the process and getting the best performances. This collaborative approach allows us to capture authentic stories that audiences resonate with and remember.

Easily one of the best production companies I’ve worked with over the last few years. The level of conscientious work these folks put into the production on and off camera is the secret to their success. The work ethic, dedication to the project and care for the cast & crew can feel like an anomaly in this industry. You’re in safe hands on a High Tide shoot and I always look forward to when I have work in the calendar with the team!
