Pretend Lovers is a filmmaking and storytelling collective based in Glasgow. Dedicated to supporting and celebrating the uncelebrated, they create films that shine a spotlight on local makers, artisans, and talented individuals from Scotland and beyond. But they do more than just make films – Pretend Lovers sparks conversations through their storytelling.

Collaboration is a cornerstone of their work, and many of their projects involve partnerships with other creatives. They have even co-hosted SHORTS, a film festival within the renowned GDFS programme, showcasing a curated selection of films from over 96 countries and 2300 submissions. While their expertise lies in documentary and independent narrative scripts, Pretend Lovers also produce short films for brands, individuals, and locations.

In addition, they offer services in photography, creative writing, and brand content. Ross and Gabrielle, the passionate duo behind Pretend Lovers, are based in Glasgow and cover all of Scotland. Visit their website or reach out to them at hello@pretendlovers.
