The Brief:

Henson Franklyn are one of the UK's finest exhibition and event builders, the kind of company whose work is seen by hundreds of thousands of people at some of the country's most prestigious events, without most of those people ever knowing who built it.

Throughout 2025 they commissioned Visually Rich to follow them across multiple projects and locations, filming their teams at work to create a suite of films for their website that finally showed the world the scale, skill and ambition behind what Henson Franklyn deliver.

The approach:

The access we were given across 2025 was extraordinary and the locations reflected exactly the level at which Henson Franklyn operate.

We filmed their teams as they built and installed the entire guest infrastructure for the HSBC Tennis World Championship at Queens Club London. We followed them to Goodwood Festival of Speed where they constructed the Moneygram Haas F1 stand, one of the most high-profile presences at one of the world's most celebrated automotive events. We covered their team simultaneously building eight stands at the Great British Shooting Show at the NEC, a logistical undertaking that demonstrated the operational scale Henson Franklyn are capable of deploying. And we documented their work across the entire signage and advertising infrastructure at Burghley Horse Trials, one of the UK's most prestigious equestrian events and a project that covered one of the most visually spectacular outdoor venues in the country.

Across every location the approach was the same, observe and capture. Getting close enough to show the craft and the complexity of what Henson Franklyn do without ever getting in the way of the people doing it. The builds are fast, the environments are demanding and the crews are working to deadlines that leave no margin for disruption. We moved with them, worked around them and produced content that reflected the energy and precision of every project as it actually happened.

Multiple visits across multiple locations throughout the year meant the final brand film suite covered genuine breadth. Different events, different environments, different scales of project, united by the consistent standard of the team behind all of it.

The result

A suite of brand films for Henson Franklyn's website that for the first time gives their digital presence the visual weight to match their real-world reputation. Content that shows prospective clients not just what Henson Franklyn build, but how they build it. The complexity they manage, the environments they operate in and the standard they deliver to at some of the UK's most high-profile events and venues.

Queens Club. Goodwood. The NEC. Burghley. Four locations that speak for themselves and now, finally, film that does the same for the business behind them.
