Hello we’re Flix!

In 2016 we embarked on a journey with a 360° VR experience that sparked our exploration into VR for healthcare. Since then, driven by innovation, inclusion, and authenticity, our dedicated team has been crafting immersive, real-life content that truly impacts lives.

Leon Ancliffe

Position: Managing Director

Leon founded Flix Films in 2009, building on his experience in creative media  freelancing as a cinematographer and director on numerous projects.

His aim was to create a production company that reflected his high ethical standards and desire to influence positive change, benefiting people across the UK and beyond. His passion for people and original creativity underpin every project, including new ventures into virtual reality technology.

In his spare time, when he’s allowed some, he picks up his trusty GoPro and backpack and explores the world, bringing back new ideas and energy (and often an unruly beard).
