An award winning, global production company, creating iconic live experiences from first idea to final performance
Bio
Black Skull is a global creative studio conceptualising and delivering dynamic, innovative experiences across the full spectrum of live entertainment and culture.
Founded in 2015 with offices in London and Los Angeles - the studio has built an enviable portfolio spanning music, fashion, theatre, television, and brand activations, with credits including the UEFA Champions League Final, Eurovision Song Contest, Olympic Ceremonies for London, Sochi, and Baku, and five installments of Saudi’s hallmark awards show: The Joy Awards.
On top of our portfolio of large-scale spectacles, we have also created shows for artists such as JADE, Freya Skye, Zara Larsson, Elton John, Burna Boy, Kun, Troye Sivan, Dua Lipa, Little Mix, Two Door Cinema Club, Stormzy, Jung Kook, Ellie Goulding, and many more.
Led by four partners from diverse creative backgrounds, Black Skull consistently sets the agenda in world-class show-making - from bespoke artist performances to stadium-scale spectaculars. The group operates through three distinct divisions.
Black Skull Creative is the flagship production house, providing end-to-end creative direction across show design, technical direction, movement direction, choreography, video direction, and talent representation - a fully panoptic approach to live entertainment under one roof.
Black Skull Studio is the group's video design collective, uniting artists, designers, and animators to craft bold, immersive visual experiences for live, broadcast, and extended reality - spanning 2D/3D animation, motion design, live camera effects, and metaverse environments.
Black Skull Talent is the group's bespoke consulting and talent agency, connecting global brands with international VIP talent, content creators, influencers, and specialist performers across branded partnerships, live performance, TV & film, and digital media.
