WHAT’S THE GEN!

Black Site Media has created high quality and creative digital marketing assets for defence industry companies and brands located across the United Kingdom, Europe and United States, utilising over 25 years of photographic and visual story telling experience across a broad spectrum of commercial, advertising and documentative genres. Creative director of Black Site Media, Guy Butler, began working with tactical and defence manufacturers back in 2009, assisting in building brand & marketing material that could be used on the newly emerging social media platforms. In 2019 Black Site Media was created to focus in on defence and military marketing & advertising.

What we do

  • Photography

    At the core of Black site Media is its photographic capability and quality. Being able to offer small bespoke photoshoots for product launches, or larger, highly produced photoshoots. Having at its disposal a vast array of technical capability, as well as being able to source highly specialised skillsets should the shoot demand it. We can equip the photoshoots with the right crew, the right models and at locations that will act as the perfect backdrop to your brand.

  • Video Production

    Videography in todays marketing strategy is key, utilising it as a content story teller and as an informative “how to” instructional guide for products is a way to not only attract clients, but to also give added value to the sales made. We have created a mix of 60 second trailers, youtube commercials, video documentaries and video tutorials for a mix of clients. We have the clearance and capability to work in government sectors to create recruiting videos for regiments and security services, both for internal and external comms. From military units to police forces, to government security services. We can work with you to get the message across as subtly or as loudly as you need.

How It started:

Guy Butler - CEO & Creative Director of Black Site Media

CEO & Creative Director - Guy Butler

Born in Winchester, Hampshire, Guy has had creativity in his blood all his life. From picking up his first camera at the age of 10, the format of capturing stills has been there. Growing up and working full time in the creative industry all his life from stage to TV, Guy envisaged and drew up in 2019 Black Site Media after recognising a huge deficit in the UK market for mid weight and above the line defence imagery.

Incorporating 25 years of artistic and creative knowledge, with 15 of those being in the photographic industry, his tenacity and drive to create stunning visual imagery and assets is rooted deep in his soul. Believing in always striving to create better, his mantra is to never settle… never rest your ability on past old work or fad awards on pieces of paper.

Deliver results to the now… and deliver your passion.
