THE LOWDOWN

From a converted utility room in Kent to one of the region’s most respected creative production agencies, Matchbox Motion has built its reputation on telling stories that connect. Founded in 2016 by filmmakers Matthew Bolton and Lee Bethell, the Wateringbury-based company has grown from a two-person passion project into a thriving creative studio producing content for businesses, brands and organisations across the UK and beyond.

Today, Matchbox Motion specialises in video production, photography, animation, podcasts and live streaming, working with clients ranging from local businesses to international brands. Their approach combines strong storytelling, modern production techniques and a collaborative spirit, ensuring every project feels authentic, engaging and tailored to its audience. Operating from their studio at The Old Stables near Maidstone, the team has developed a reputation for producing polished, high-quality content that helps businesses stand out online and communicate with confidence.

Whether you’re launching a new product, promoting an event or building brand awareness, Matchbox Motion offers a full suite of creative production services under one roof. Their expertise spans corporate films, branded content, promotional videos, case studies, social media campaigns and product photography, as well as professional podcast production and video editing.

Animation is another key area of the business, with services including 2D animation, motion graphics, explainer videos, animated infographics and logo reveals designed to bring complex ideas to life in a clear and engaging way. Alongside this, the team provides commercial photography, corporate headshots, lifestyle imagery and event photography, helping brands create cohesive visual content across multiple platforms.

Matchbox Motion is trusted by businesses and organisations to capture events of every scale, from local conferences and corporate gatherings to international trade shows, award ceremonies and live performances.
