Now Closed, a new chapter begins...

TealBackground_Logo.png

It’s with a mix of sadness and gratitude that we announce that Cunning Media is now closed.

​

We've had an incredible journey filled with creativity, collaboration, and loads of fun. We're proud of what we accomplished together, and it's been a privilege to share this experience with our clients, partners, and friends.

​

James and Sarah will continue working from the same office as sole traders offering Workflow Consultancy and DIT services.

We also continue to offer our equipment for hire, ensuring that the high-quality work you've come to expect from us remains available.

In this ever-changing industry, we’re reminded that while some chapters must come to an end, the connections we've built and the passion we share will continue to shape whatever comes next. We want to extend our deepest thanks to everyone who has supported us along the way.

​

Thank you for being a part of our story and do keep in touch.
