About Us

What Makes Us

Unique

10th

Experience

Virtual Production Technology

We've invested in professional virtual production technology - the same green screen and Ultimatte systems used by the BBC, Netflix, and Disney. This means unlimited visual possibilities for your podcast or videos. No static studio backdrop - your content gets custom-branded environments that evolve with you and your business.

Full-Service Production

From the moment you step into our studio, we handle everything. Multi-camera 4K recording, professional editing, social media snippets, and the option for complete distribution management of podcasts. You focus on your message; we take care of the rest. You can either come away from a full day in the studio with your content edited, finished and in your inbox - so you can really start making the most of it.

Community and Coaching

Howell Studios isn’t just a place to record- it's a creative community for ambitious podcasters and content creators. We can support you with confidence coaching, camera skills and media training, to make sure you're showing up as 100% you!

We're here to help you grow your skills, your confidence, and your audience.

We are Family.

Meet The Howells

As a family business, we bring a level of care and attention that larger studios simply can't match. Every client matters. Every project gets our full commitment. We're not just service providers - we're your partners in creating something exceptional.

Issy Howell

Issy leads all production at Howell Studios and Howell Media, bringing over 10 years of industry experience and a background in video editing. She manages everything from studio operations to client relationships, ensuring every podcast we produce meets broadcast-quality standards.

Chris Howell

Chris co-founded Howell Media and Howell Studios with a vision to make world-class production accessible to ambitious creators. With decades of business experience, Chris brings strategic insight and a supportive, encouraging approach to every project.

Our Values

Quality Without Compromise

We use professional-grade equipment including BlackMagic 6K cameras, multi-camera setups, and broadcast-quality audio systems. Your content deserves the best, and that's exactly what

we deliver.

Reliability You Can Trust

With nearly 2000 projects completed through Howell Media, we've built our reputation on meeting deadlines, exceeding expectations, and delivering consistent excellence. When you book with us, you can relax.

We've got this.

Creativity That Stands Out

From custom virtual backgrounds to creative editing and social snippets, we help your content look and sound different from the rest. We're not a cookie-cutter studio—every project gets our creative attention.

Personal Service That Cares

As a family business, we treat every client like part of the Howell Studios family. You'll always speak to Issy or Chris directly. No call centres, no automated responses - just real people who genuinely care about your success!
