Meet the Team
Experienced Practitioners,
not just Producers

You deal directly with the experts doing the work, ensuring your strategic objectives are never lost in translation.

  • Rob | Managing Director

    With over 25 years in the industry, Rob is the strategic engine behind Ally & Mo, bringing a level of seniority that ensures your message survives the complex layers of an enterprise organisation. Having navigated everything from global brand launches and consumer-facing YouTube content, to sensitive internal restructures, he understands that a video’s success is measured by business impact, not just aesthetics.

    Rob acts as a calm, expert partner for leadership teams, helping to strip away the corporate-waffle and find the core narrative that actually moves the needle for your staff and customers.

  • Ben | Producer

    Ben is the man responsible for making sure everyone on screen looks and feels like a natural. You might recognise him from his ‘previous life’ on various long-running British soaps and dramas (yes, that is him), and he puts that acting background to excellent use for our clients.

    He has a unique knack for coaching nervous executives and "camera-shy" teams into relaxed, authentic performances that build immediate trust. By making the filming process genuinely enjoyable, Ben ensures the final edit captures real personality rather than a stiff, scripted version of your message.

  • Josh | Editor and Animator

    Josh is our resident ‘Editor and Animator Extraordinaire’ and a true master of the technical craft, having spent his entire career honing his skills within the Ally & Mo fold.

    What he doesn't know about Premiere Pro and After Effects generally isn’t worth knowing, but his real value to our clients is his unflappable nature; he stays perfectly calm in the heat of a deadline when others might feel the pressure. With a sharp eye for detail, Josh is the safety net who remembers the small, vital elements the ‘old timers’ might forget, ensuring every frame of your animation or edit is polished, professional, and perfectly aligned with your brand.

Yeah, but who are ‘Ally’ and ‘Mo’ then?

Ally

Mo

In hindsight, it probably would have been much more sensible to choose a name that ‘does what it says on the tin’ - something along the lines of The People-Centric Internal Corporate Communications & Employer Branding Video Production Company Ltd. Catchy, right? 

But I’ve always preferred a bit of personality over a dry list of services.

When I (I being ‘Rob’ - see above) was naming the business, I knew I didn’t want to go down the ‘cheesy’ route of naming it after my kids, my dog or something similar. Instead, I looked to my parents, Althea and Maurice. They always told me a story about a fancy dress party they went to back in the day, dressed somewhat loosely as Boycie and Marlene from Only Fools and Horses (overseas visitors, click here for more context!). According to them, they even had a custom sun visor made for the car that proudly read "Ally & Mo".

Now, thinking about it with my adult brain, the idea of getting a bespoke printed sun visor in the early 80s seems both remarkably difficult and needlessly expensive. There is a very high probability the whole thing was a complete wind-up, but hey ho, we are where we are.

So, if you ever thought the name sounded like two blokes in a shed... we aren't, but at least now you know why we’re called what we’re called.
