We are thinking Bigand global across age, culture, and language barriers. [what we do?]
We are making a Bang! by provoking social change through new music and filmmaking. [how we do it?]
We are creating a Lab for cultural social responsibility, diversity and innovation [why?]
“There can be no understanding between the hand and the brain unless the heart acts as a mediator” (Metropolis, 1927 – Fritz Lang)
Big Bang Lab is a leading cultural-social enterprise and creative development agency working from innovation consultancy to production and creative learning design, actively promoting cultural heritage as a means towards sustainability and socio-economic development. Creators of the cultural social responsibility concept, we work across digital media, film, music and heritage. Our social innovation model is based on the facilitation of collective production of silent films and new music to achieve social inclusion. From concept to delivery, we engage participants and audiences alike with cultural heritage, social, environmental and contemporary issues.
Shared Voices is a new service by Big Bang Lab, using our know-how on participatory media production using crowdsourcing audio and video production for web and social media to help organisations with marketing, advocacy, fundraising and brand awareness.

Through live performances, plus the re-use of digital media and other forms of distribution, Big Bang Lab communicates and connects people worldwide across language barriers and cultural traditions. It is the only UK creative agency that combines digital and archive media with new music in original formats, from consulting to learning and production.
We specialize in transforming assets, archives and memories into new audiovisual digital content with the participation of communities and artists re-investing back to the creators and communities through ethical Intellectual Property models. We produce, commission or facilitate the production of participatory documentaries, creative oral history programmes, digital silent film and new music production, DVD and live music performances and special events.

Sharing conversations across generations using video. Giving a voice to communities in London
We work with young people, integrating communities across generations and cultural backgrounds. We are exploring new models of creative collective participation. By engaging people with their heritage, we explore the past, understand the present and build a better future. We are bringing heritage alive because we make it relevant.
We provide accessibility to film archives, allow the re-use of audio-visual media through participatory creative programmes involving communities and new talent. Big Bang Lab works and foster new partnerships to maximise the impact and sustainability from concept to production and distribution.
Our vision is leading towards creating opportunities for new forms of silent cinema with live music. We are promoting new digital silent films with live original music as a new experience. We are leading the intercultural entrepreneurial action for social change by implementing changes that leave an impact. Big Bang Lab is cinema beyond pure entertainment; music and film combined together as a living experience.
