Experienced thinking.
Hands-on production.
Yard B is an independent, story-led film and animation studio, combining strategic clarity with cinematic craft.
Founded by Lewis Darby in 2017, we work with businesses, agencies and charities to create thoughtful visual communications. Our approach brings together clear thinking, hands-on production and trusted creative collaborators, making ambitious work accessible without unnecessary complexity.
Carefully crafted films,
designed to go far.
We believe creative work has value when it changes something. That starts with understanding what needs to be communicated, who it needs to reach and what the work should achieve.
Film and animation sit side by side in our approach, giving us the freedom to find the right solution rather than fitting every brief into one format.
Lewis leads projects directly, bringing together experienced collaborators when needed. It's a flexible way of working, built around shared standards, clear communication and a calm, focused production process.
We're interested in making work that lasts, creating useful assets and helping clients get more from their creative investment.
How we roll.
The way we do business is just as important as the work we do.
As a Certified B Corporation®, we're part of a community working towards a better way of doing business.
That means taking our responsibilities seriously, from the people we work with to the impact we have on the planet. There's always more to learn and improve, but we're committed to making a positive difference through the work we do and the way we do it.
