Maybe you've landed here because you're curious about Isaac Who? Well, that's good news because our ethos is that we are a film production company built on curiosity. Today we thought we would share a little bit about our boutique film production company.

Who is Isaac Who?

Isaac Who is an independent film production company based in Leeds and Huddersfield in the North of England. We pride ourselves on telling original and contemporary stories. We work and collaborate with many creatives within the industry to make a variety of high-quality films of all genres. We are always on the lookout for the next best thing in film and television.

Why Isaac Who?

The idea behind Isaac Who was influenced by Isaac Newton would you believe. We were inspired by the famous tail of the scientist Isaac Newton and an apple. The legend goes that a young Isaac Newton was sitting under an apple tree when he was hit on the head by a falling apple which gave him an “aha" moment that prompted him to suddenly come up with his law of gravity. Our logo now features the infamous tree and apple as a nod to this event. While the truth may have been stretched a little over the years, we took the idea as a representation of discovering new ways to do things. Inspiration is clearly everywhere. Whether a scientist, artist or writer, curiosity is what drives innovation and new ideas.
