WHO WE ARE

Who are Dangerous?

Dangerous Studio started as a slightly mad idea to find a better work/life balance, bringing together Amy and Bren’s vast experience in video production, management and digital content knowledge. Ten years later we are proud to have a well-established studio in Leith and an amazing, growing team - not to mention some fabulous (and lovely) clients. We are business owners, so we know our stuff, and understand what it’s like spinning all the plates. We can help you to find a dynamic solution that makes your life easier. Did we mention that we’re clever with budgets too?
